      Easy Learning German Vocabulary - Collins Dictionaries

      how to use this book

      The Easy Learning German Vocabulary is designed for both young and adult learners. Whether you are starting to learn German for the very first time, revising for school exams or simply want to brush up on your German, the Easy Learning German Vocabulary offers you the information you require in a clear and accessible format.

      This book is divided into 50 topics, arranged in alphabetical order. This thematic approach enables you to learn related words and phrases together, so that you can become confident in using particular vocabulary in context.

      Vocabulary within each topic is divided into nouns and useful phrases which are aimed at helping you to express yourself in idiomatic German. Vocabulary within each topic is graded to help you prioritize your learning. Essential words include the basic words you will need to be able to communicate effectively, important words help expand your knowledge, and useful words provide additional vocabulary which will enable you to express yourself more fully.

      Nouns are grouped by gender, which makes it easier to remember if they are masculine (der) nouns, feminine (die) nouns and neuter (das) nouns. In addition, all plural forms are shown, with the exception of feminine nouns ending in –in (these regularly become –innen in the plural) and those forms, of whatever gender, which have the same form in both singular and plural.

      Nouns which have been derived from adjectives follow the style:

      This means that the noun ending depends on whether the article is definite or indefinite, masculine or feminine, singular or plural. For example:

      At the end of the book you will find a list of supplementary vocabulary, grouped according to part of speech – adjective, verb, noun and so on. This is vocabulary which you will come across in many everyday situations.
