Ich bin ja ein grosser Fan von Web-Radio. Hab da grad einen tollen Fund gemacht, kennt ihr diese Seite?

Kleiner Tipp: Die Uni Basel hat eine interessante Liste im Bereich

Berufe für LinguistInnen,

wobei auch sonst einige interessante Bewerbungstipps zu finden sind.

Have a look at this article!

An interesting compilation - though I don't really think the Moby Dick-opening deserves the first rank, there are many others I prefer (n. 2 would certainly be among the top openings for me).

The list also makes good exam preparation - quite a lot of these books are on the reading list, so you can check how many you recognize ;-)

And as a good way to recall all the books, we could compile our own list for the exam stuff!

hey! en tip:

www.thefreedictionary.com
