Features: Chinese is the most widely spoken native language, while English is the most widely spoken foreign language. However, Germans were pioneers in newspaper publishing and are the world champions in this field. In 1609, the world's first newspaper—a weekly—was published in Strasbourg. In 1650, the world's first daily newspaper was launched in Leipzig. Today, a rich variety of German-language publications can be found almost worldwide. In regions where Germans are a minority due to historical reasons (mainly Eastern Europe), in areas where Germans have immigrated (such as North America, Central America, South America, Africa, and Australia), and in places with a large number of German tourists (like France, Spain, Portugal, and Thailand), German newspapers and magazines are published everywhere. Dear readers, when you decide to learn German, it means you will have the opportunity to read current news and reports from around the world in German. This book will let you discover that there is so much waiting for you to read. Chinese is the most widely spoken native language, while English is the most widely spoken foreign language.
