Excerpt from Elementary German Grammar In the grammar outline, the aim has been to present the more essential facts as briefly and simply as pos sible, and in the order best favoring the early practical use of the language. The usual order of presentation has accordingly been deviated from in introducing the verb earlier, and also in postponing the subjunctive mood to the end. Less essential facts of grammar are given in notes scattered through the lessons, which do not, however, in every case refer to the topic under con sideration in the particular lesson. In the conversations, the arrangement is such that the question suggests the answer. As indicated, they can be still further extended at pleasure, what is given being rather suggestions for treatment by question and answer than any attempt at exhaustion of the theme. Actual communication in the new language is thus secured from the first, and the pupil enabled to realize that life which the oral use of it inspires, and to gain an impres sion of its spirit and character. At the end of each lesson is a short and simple read ing exercise. This is so arranged with translation or notes, that the pupil will at once see the meaning, though he may not understand the grammatical construction. Indeed, the object of these readings is not grammar drill, but to furnish material for practice and memorizing, and to gratify the natural eagerness of the beginner to see the language itself. A considerable number of these selections are popular German songs. Pupils should be encouraged, if not required, to sing these. They will thus be memorized in the surest and most agreeable manner, and will prove to be a great assistance to further work and in the cultivation of enthusiasm for the study.
