Features: Modern German Conversation is a contemporary German-Chinese conversation manual that is up-to-date, practical, and innovative. It is suitable for individuals studying, working, living, or traveling in German-speaking countries, as well as for German volunteers and teachers preparing for the 2008 Beijing Olympics and the 2010 Shanghai World Expo. The key feature of this book is its practicality: it collects 25 common daily conversation scenarios and topics, along with corresponding annotations as needed. In some scenarios and topics, it provides essential practical vocabulary for users to flexibly apply in real situations. Additionally, it offers numerous phrases and sentence patterns based on nine common speech intentions in daily life, allowing users to apply them at any time.
The second key feature of this book is its novelty: it presents relatively fresh and modern conversation topics relevant to contemporary life, such as culture, sports, foreign trade and the World Expo, as well as science and technology. Considering China's national conditions, especially the 2008 Beijing Olympics and the 2010 Shanghai World Expo, which will require a large number of German-speaking professionals, this book has made some preparations in advance. In the new century, the rapid development of science and culture has introduced many new terms, many of which still lack standardized German translations. This book strives to introduce as many of these new terms as possible, thereby keeping the content as up-to-date as possible with the times.
