Every Mango course, chapter, and lesson incorporates our Intuitive Language Construction methodology,designed to simulate the way people learn a foreign language when actually immersed in everyday, practical conversation. Each lesson incorporates four key learning components:

• Vocabulary
  Mango focuses on words and phrases that will be the most valuable in common, real-life situations for each specific language and culture.Vocabulary words are taught through conversation, rather than just a list, to help users understand context and make the most of their time.
• Pronunciation
  Mango’s course audio is recorded by professional native-speaking voice talents, giving users the best possible baseline on which to model their own pronunciation. The coursealso provides two speeds for everything it teaches: a normal, conversational speed and a slower speed, in which every syllable is clearly enunciated. Our voice comparison feature allows students to compare their pronunciation to the narrator’s, using a visual representation to note the differences.
• Grammar
  Grammar instruction is at the core of what makes Mango’s methodology unique. Since each lesson is based on actual conversation, Mango students are constantly learning about grammar and sentence structure, at the same time that they’re learning vocabulary and pronunciation. Through Mango’s semantic color mapping, literal translations, grammar notes, and critical thinking exercises, students begin to intuitively understand how words and phrases are combined to construct meaning.
• Culture
  Mango integrates cultural insights into every lesson, ensuring that users develop an understanding of the expectations, customs, and etiquette of the culture they are studying. This understanding helps students navigate the most appropriate language to use in particular situations and with different audiences.
