9. Everybody speaks a language
· Doesn’t matter the country that you visit in all of them the
natives, speak the language perfectly.
· But not all of them write correclty.
· Why ?
· Because is easier to speak than to write.
Therefore: Is it difficult to speak a language?
-Not at all, if all the native can do it why you cannot?
- A lot of people thinks that we learnt our language because
we were kids at the time. But it is easy to learn a language
when you are an adult rather than when you are a kid.

14. Vocabulary
· The vocabulary is the most important.
· Pronunciation and grammar doesn’t matter if you don’t
have vocabulary.
Robert Brunet Page 14 of 90

15. Pronunciation
· When you speak it’s not just important that you know the
word. It is also important that the other understand what
you are trying to say.
· Bad pronunciation can cause problems of
misunderstanding.
Robert Brunet Page 15 of 90

16. Grammar
· Grammar is the set of structural rules that govern the
composition of clauses, phrases, and words in any
given natural language.

21. 4. How to memorize all the words
Robert Brunet Page 21 of 90

22. Asociaciones Inverosimiles
• The method to memorize easly is the inverosimil
association, because our memory works with association
of images and ideas.
• Any word that you don’t know in a language is a pure
date.
• I cannot dudece the nubmer of habitants, or the
geographical position or the color of the flag, non historic
data, because all of them are pure date.
• All the words are pure data, therefore we have to use our
imagination to find links among these new words.
Robert Brunet Page 22 of 90

23. Exercices Pure Data
• Association of visuable words
• Association of non-visuable words
Robert Brunet Page 23 of 90

24. 5. Tables to memorize
Robert Brunet Page 24 of 90

25. Adquire vocabulary
• There is no relation between “arbol” and “tree”
• There are also similar words easy to memorize
• The students use repetition to memorize but this is not
the best way
Robert Brunet Page 25 of 90

26. Tables
• Divide in different grous a total of 850 words
• We have to learn less that 600, which will be our basic
vocabulary.
