특징
언감생심 영어를 유창하게 잘해보겠다는 욕심을 버리고 영어 벙어리만 면할 수 있다면 그것으로 감사하며, 영어 까막눈에서 벗어나고 싶은 사람들을 위한 책이다.
대화를 위한 기본 표현뿐 아니라 그와 관련되거나 비슷한 내용을 더 소개해 가능한 많은 표현을 익힐 수 있도록 구성하였다. 무엇보다 영어를 못하는 사람들이 원어민을 만났을 때 가장 하고 싶은 말, 궁금한 말, 해외여행에서 자기 앞가림을 못해 쩔쩔매야 했던 절실한 말 등 가려운 데를 시원하게 긁어주는 말들을 모두 실었다.
문화의 차이와 그에 따른 표현도 엿볼 수 있는 팁(Tip)은 이 책에서 독자들에게 제공하는 쏠쏠한 재미이기도 하다.
또 각 대화에서 지나치기 쉬운 단어와 구문을 꼼꼼하게 정리하여 세심하게 확인할 수 있도록 노트로 묶어 놓았다.
구성
‘외국인과 대화하기 필수표현 80’과 ‘해외여행 상황별 필수표현 80’ 두 파트로 나누어 철저한 연습을 통해 어디서 누구를 만나든 쉽게 활용할 수 있도록 구성하였다.
외국인과 대화하기 필수표현 80 - 국제화 시대가 가속화하면서 어디를 가든 외국인을 마주칠 기회는 점점 많아지는데, 그들에게 말을 걸기는커녕 먼저 말을 걸어와도 말 한마디 못하는 답답함과 영어 때문에 잔뜩 주눅이 든 왕초보들에게 자신감을 주고 외국인에게 직접 말을 걸어 대화해 볼 수 있는 방법과 필요한 말들을 모두 실었다.
해외여행 상황별 필수표현 80 - 실제로 해외여행에서 꼭 필요한 말은 그리 많지 않다. 하물며 초보자는 꼭 필요한 말만 하기도 벅차다. 그래서 군더더기는 쏙 빼버리고 반드시 알아야 할 핵심 표현만을 엄선하였다. 여기에 나오는 표현만 소화하면 세계 어디든지 혼자서도 여행하는데 큰 불편이 없을 뿐 아니라 초보자들의 답답한 입을, 말이 하고 싶어서 근질근질하도록 만들기에 충분할 것이다.
