Rank has legitimate rights. When rank has been earned and signifies excellence, then it's generally accepted, and rightfully so. But the power of rank is often abused. The abuse of rank, or of power, is rankism. Treating others as invisible, as 'nobodies,' - insulting someone's dignity - that's rankism. Most of us have felt its sting; most have dished it out in some form. Overcoming rankism - in the family, the schools, and the workplace - is democracy's next step and the focus of this insightful dialogue between Robert Fuller and Michael Toms.

Wir sorgen dafür, dass Du Dich ausschließlich auf die Sprache konzentrieren kannst – ohne ablenkende Hintergrundmusik.
Sprechen, wie ein Einheimischer
Wir wissen, dass nicht jeder gleich spricht. Dialekt, Sprechtempo und Akzent variieren je nach Region – manchmal sogar nach Stadtteil. Am Anfang werden unsere Hörbuchsprecher daher ihren Tonfall variieren, die Koreanisch Redewendungen langsamer oder schneller aussprechen und unterschiedliche Teile der Redewendung betonen. Das hilft Dir dabei, Koreanisch schneller zu verstehen und auf natürliche Art zu sprechen.
