Speak you English?

"Equal goes it loose" – with this seemingly English phrase, a high-ranking official once attempted to showcase his worldly English skills at a reception. Those who mock such blunders often suppress their own language mistakes. Neither poor grades nor the polite discomfort of English-speaking partners can prevent Germans from repeatedly misusing the English language. Not out of defiance or ignorance, but because German linguistic patterns shape our speech, we consistently make the same typical errors. Gunther Bischoff has developed a program to unlearn these common mistakes, tested in teaching settings. This approach addresses foreign language challenges stemming from native language habits, which other textbooks often overlook. Bischoff's exercise program is suitable for self-study or group work; with its trial-and-error method, it can even serve as a social game. Targeted yet engaging, it helps eliminate weaknesses that students, tourists, or businesspeople tend to retain across various language proficiency levels.
