Living Language(R) has been a proven and effective foreign language learning tool for more than seventy years. Using techniques originally developed for the US State Department, the Living Language Method follows a four-point approach from building a foundation of essential words and phrases, advancing to full sentences and conversations, practicing with recall exercises aimed at both short- and long-term memory, and developing practical language skills to equip the learner in any situation. Living Language(R) is an imprint of Random House LLC, a Penguin Random House Company.
