Nobody ever became literate in any language, native or foreign, without reading and absorbing literary texts in progressive levels over extensive periods of time.

"AudioBOOKS" are TEXT & VOICE multi-dimensional tools empowering intermediate and advanced students and self-learners, in and out of class, to experience and master literary texts.

Most audio recordings are available with full transcriptions. If a novel is recorded in part it is generally from the beginning chapter(s)and these are complete. Works are never edited or abridged. It must be easy for the student to follow the text word-for-word.

The written word accelerates rapid, complete understanding of the spoken text. The spoken text clarifies and re-enforces the written text. Focus is on the needs of intermediate and advanced language learners to:

  • strengthen understanding of the spoken word
  • absorb phonemes by repetitive, systematic exposure
  • build extensive vocabulary
  • work at ever increasing & progressively challenging levels
  • internalize sentence structure
  • develop feeling for literary style
  • If this sounds like a lot of work--it is! We do not have a quick fix and our methods and materials are not for everyone; just for those who will give it what it really takes.

    An "AudioBook" as we define it for purposes of language acquisition/ study consists of an audio recording plus a written transcript. Interlingua has made every effort to supply printed texts to accompany our recordings. This slows down our production and the growth of our title offerings.

    The Internet has a growing number of downloadable texts in all languages we publish including Russian. We encourage you to use these and not order texts from us.
