Teach Yourself Icelandic is the course for anyone who wants to progress quickly from the basics to understanding, speaking and writing Icelandic with confidence. Although aimed at beginners, it is equally suitable for those wishing to brush up existing knowledge. The current edition of Teach Yourself Icelandic has been completely rewritten to reflect current teaching practice. This edition adopts a communicative approach to learning the language and includes lots of artwork and realistic exercises. A story runs throughout the book to keep the language in context and make the book enjoyable and easy to use. Key structures and vocabulary are introduced in 12 thematic units progressing from introducing yourself to looking for a flat. The emphasis is on communication throughout with important language introduced through dialogues on the recording. The two CDs of accompanying listening material are available separately (0 340 85665 3) or in a pack with the book (0 340 85664 5).
