Synopsis

A collection of pictures designed to help language students build vocabulary. Includes an English word list. Foreign language word lists available separately.

Lexicarry offers a fun, active, conversational approach to language learning. With this book you can learn any language the active way using one of the Lexicarry word lists and/or someone who knows the language.

The book has 142 pages of full-color drawings illustrating functional language and vocabulary in 190 situational and topical contexts. This amounts to over 4500 everyday words and expressions. The pictures make conversation and interactive learning easy.

Unlike standard "picture dictionaries," Lexicarry stimulates talk, lots of talk, while students build their speaking skills and learn vocabulary.

Students learn by discussing the objects, places, and activities in the drawings, working together in pairs, as a class, or with native speakers. The illustrations are not labeled, and this naturally challenges and excites the students' imaginations and helps them retain the language. The brilliant colors and often humorous drawings add to the fun of working with Lexicarry.

This revised edition has some minor technical vocabulary updates and corrects a printing issue from the last printing.
