Wrong!!! Every language has a different syntactical structure.We are the first worldwide to have decoded the language syntax. (This could be applied to translation programs). To show you what is meant, here is an example that compares the syntax structure of different languages: For example: Greek: But I don't want to to you it explain today at school.English: But I don't want to explain it to you at school today.German: But I want it to you but today don't at school explain.Spanish: But I don't want explain you it today at school.Therefore there's a syntax rule in every book for every foreign language separately and the students are in the position to create correct sentences without ever having heard or seen them before, all they need to do is to learn the words. The first step is comprehending the matter, and then implementing it. It's difficult for someone without comprehending first to implement the material.Let's forget the difficulties of foreign language learning! We will explain the syntax and grammar with numbers in brackets and colours. Each number or colour symbolizes a syntax-grammar clarification so that everything is explained word by word.

The Multilingual Instructor
Winner of the Modern Language Association's Kenneth W. Mildenberger Prize Claire Kramsch and Lihua Zhang use an ecological approach and a complexity thought model to examine the identities, experiences, and practices of foreign language teachers as native or non-native speakers, multilingual instructors, and professional educators. What is their sense of legitimacy? How do they bridge the historical and cultural gaps between them and their students? What stories do they share in the classroom? Which do they not share? How do they view their ethical responsibility?
