Summary, etc. |
"Say It Naturally: Verbal Strategies for Authentic Communication is based on a functional/notional approach to language learning. It deals with communicative strategies that are designed to help the newcomer adapt to American social situations, in which a certain amount of verbal knowhow, tact, and polite phrasing is often required and expected. Certain fundamental notions (like thanking and complaining) - that many native speakers take for granted because they are almost intuitive - may cause great difficulty to a person trying to understand a new language and a new culture. For example, how can one tactfully decline an invitation or offer criticism? How does one express sympathy and respond when sympathy is offered? Say It Naturally deals with these communicative strategies and others that are a basic part of every American's daily life: greeting and introducing people, making excuses, agreeing and disagreeing, complimenting an acknowledging compliments, and other more sophisticated and delicate verbal skills and strategies.<br/>Say It Naturally is intended for nonnative speakers of English at the intermediate to advanced levels. The text covers concerns that are universal to people - regardless of nationality, language or culture. The text is designed to be used as part of a conversation class, since it focuses on ways to express various notions verbally, but it could be used in other parts of an intensive English program. Because the material is action-oriented (with dialogs, role plays, and community-involvement activities), the motivational level is high. Even sluggish or reluctant students can be drawn into the conversations and role plays. And because the exercises are structured from very controlled to free, the instructor can use the material with students of varying verbal proficiencies." (Préface, p. v) |
