Excerpt from Foreigners' Guide to English Some of the foreigners who come to make their home in the United States have been well educated in their own countries; some may have received a certain degree of education; others have had no education whatever. All, however, need to become acquainted with the English language. Most of them work long hours during the daytime and often at places where they hear little or no English. Their evening class is sometimes the only place where they can hear the language properly spoken. Most of them think, when they come to this country, that the English language is difficult to acquire. Hence the first lessons should be simple, with results that may be readily seen by teacher and pupil alike. They should find their lessons interesting and should see that they are useful. In order that they may be satisfied, great effort should be made to stimulate them, to make each lesson of some intrinsic value, and to present the study of English in as interesting a way as possible. Through daily contact outside the school-room with persons of different nationalities, the author of this book has learned which of the peculiarities of the English language are most difficult for them, and also what vocabulary is requisite for their everyday life. This book is written to present these particular things, and at the same time to familiarize the pupil with the idiomatic expressions most commonly used.

This is not your typical guide to English! Stand back frightened administrators and shy teachers-Dirty Words will guide foreign language students through the dangerous territory of everyday English profanity. In Dirty Words you get all the English vocabulary that you can't learn from textbooks-the rude and the crude, the American language of anger and frustration. It's all explained here, clearly and with examples and humor. The book is divided into eight chapters covering such topics as anatomy, expletives, insults, and humor. The Accidental English chapter is devoted to words with multiple meanings; often these are common, otherwise harmless words that have additional layers of profane or obscene meaning. ESL students will benefit greatly from an understanding of these words. Another chapter defines various ethnic, racial, and homosexual slurs, as well as words associated with the bathroom. The glossary contains most of the terms discussed in the book. The final chapter contains exercises that test the comprehension of the dirty words and phrases explained in the text; the answers to these exercises can be found in an appendix. Dirty jokes are scattered throughout the text. Some readers may find them funny, some may not, but they provide a vehicle for instruction that is not only engaging for the student but contextually appropriate, as humor is one of the most frequent sources and uses of profanity. Many of these jokes depend on the comprehension of multiple meanings of a word. Each joke is accompanied by an explanation and a list of relevant vocabulary words.
