This Wikiproject is to coordinate the work on books related to human languages.

Feel free to add your comments, suggestions, critics. And be bold editing this page.

In every language, you need some same basic things :

  • vocabulary related to food, familly, etc
  • being able to say that your name is X, how old you are, that you are hungry.

Off course, you may need different thinks according to the language you are studying. For example rice for Japan. And being able to say it is cold would be less usefull if you travel to some countries. However, a lot of vocabulary may be used in nearly all languages.


For vocabulary, we can use the same template
