Talking Your Way Around The World is a comprehensive guidebook written by Mario Pei that provides practical tips and strategies for travelers who want to communicate effectively in foreign languages. The book is divided into several sections, each of which covers a different aspect of language learning and communication. The first section provides an introduction to the basics of language learning, including tips for choosing a language to learn and strategies for effective language study. The second section focuses on the practical aspects of language use, including tips for ordering food, asking for directions, and making small talk with locals. The third section of the book covers more advanced topics, such as how to negotiate prices and deal with difficult situations like medical emergencies or lost luggage. The final section of the book provides a list of resources for travelers, including language learning apps, online dictionaries, and travel guides. Throughout the book, Pei emphasizes the importance of cultural awareness and sensitivity, and provides examples of how cultural differences can impact communication. The book is written in a clear and accessible style, making it an ideal resource for both novice and experienced travelers.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
