Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Manual of French Phrases, and French Conversations: Adapted to Wanostrocht's Grammar; Containing an Extensive Collection of Words and Dialogues Upon Each Rule, With Examples From the First French Authors; Calculated to Assist the Pupil in Writing the Exercises Long experience has shewn, that to acquire the habit of conversing in a foreign language, the surest method for the learner, is to commit to memory a great number of phrases employed in conversation and adapted to the rules of the Grammar which he goes through. Most persons, who have studied the French language with care, find little or no difficulty, in reading our Au thors, but very few indeed find themselves able to con verse with fluency. For the purpose of removing this difficulty, many books, or manuals of conversation, have been published; some containing useful matter, many without method or accuracy, all arranged in chapters, or under heads, taking the most common subjects which may be the topics of conversation, as if the mind, transformed into a mechanical engine, could apply such chapters to all cases which may occur in discourse. A book there fore is still needed, which, being adapted to one of the best Grammars in use, may-first, give to the learner a number of phrases, placed under each rule, analogous to the exercise which is to be written. Second, incorporate with those phrases all words in common use, arranged, as far as possible, according to some fixed principle. Third, introduce gradually the idioms ofihe language, beginning with the most simple. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
