As this book is only the continuation of the series begun in the first book, the author did not think it necessary to repeat here a description of his method of teaching.
The first book contains the most indispensable vocabulary for simple conversations, especially such as are useful in traveling; few abstract expressions and only elementary grammatical constructions were admitted.
In the second book the vocabulary is gradually enriched with abstract words and idiomatic expressions, which are generally employed in such a manner as to render their signification evident through the context, or so that the teacher will find in the preceding lessons the words necessary for explaining the new phrases.
The lessons are to be given in the same way as those at the end of the first book; i. e. The teacher reads one or several sentences, lets the student also read them, corrects his pronunciation, asks him a great many questions like those in the exercises, and finally makes him repeat by heart the sentences read.
