M ORE P RAISE FOR F LUENT F OREVER

“Never before have I seen a language-learning method—or method for learning anything!—

that synchs up so perfectly with our current scientific understanding of how memory works . I

now understand why my past attempts to learn other languages (Spanish, German, Latin) have left me

with little more than a smattering of near-random vocabulary words, and I’m inspired to try again.

Fluent Forever promises a fun, personalized learning regimen that is sure to wire a new tongue into

your brain with speed and simplicity. And Wyner’s sharp wit will keep you entertained along the

way! I’ve never been so excited to challenge my mind.”

—Karen Schrock Simring, contributing editor at Scientific American Mind

“ Fluent Forever is the book I wish I had had during my numerous failed attempts at learning

different languages. It’s a refreshingly fun and engaging guide that shows you how to language hack

your brain. Wyner’s done all the hard work so that the reader can actually enjoy the process of

becoming fluent in a language quickly!”

—Nelson Dellis, 2011 and 2012 USA Memory Champion

“ Fluent Forever more than meets the daunting challenge of learning a new language by giving the

reader a solid game plan based on how people actually learn and memorize information. From the

first chapter, I couldn’t wait to get started using Wyner’s techniques and tons of resources. His

writing is engaging, smart, and conversational, making learning a real joy . If you’ve ever wanted

to become fluent in another language, do yourself a favor and start reading Fluent Forever now.”

—Melanie Pinola, contributor writer for Lifehacker.com and author of LinkedIn in 30 Minutes

“This is the book I’d use next time I want to learn a new language. It employs an intelligent mix

of the latest methods for learning a language on your own using the Web, apps, and voice-training tips

in an accelerated time frame.”

—Kevin Kelly, senior maverick at Wired and author of What Technology Wants

“I know what you’re thinking: But learning a new language is soooo hard! The solution? Stop being

a whiner and start reading Wyner. This book is a winner! Guaranteed to rewire your brain in as

many languages as you’d like.”

—Joel Saltzman, author of Shake That Brain!: How to Create Winning Solutions and Have Fun

While You’re at It

“ An excellent book … Wyner writes in an engaging and accessible way, weaving in his personal

language journey. His method, proven by his own achievements, is clear: focus on pronunciation,

avoid translation, and use spaced repetition extensively. And he offers lots of specific techniques to

make sure you’ll never forget what you’ve learned. I’d recommend this book to anyone who is

serious—not just aspiring but really serious—about becoming fluent in a foreign language.”

—Kevin Chen, cofounder of italki.com

“ Mash up the DNA of Steve Jobs and Aristotle and add training in engineering and opera, and

you get Gabriel Wyner, whose ingeniously elegant system helps us knuckleheads learn not just

foreign languages but, well, everything . Autodidacts rejoice!”

—Jay Heinrichs, author of Thank You for Arguing and Word Hero

“Americans refuse to realize that all languages are foreign—yes, including English. It’s time we

learned how to speak like the rest of the world: in more ways than one. This book is a hilarious

toolbox that helps you get a head start. Pick a foreign language (yes, including English) and voilà:

el futuro es tuyo . High-five to Gabriel Wyner!”

—Ilan Stavans, author of Dictionary Days: A Defining Passion
