Languages ... AMELIA DE LAURO Spanish Foreign Languages Department Chairman MARY BELINA Italian Twirlers JOSEF MANZELLA French Italian Spanish Language is the primary form of communication among men. Speaking a language other than one’s own opens the door to international friendship and understanding. With these goals in mind, the Foreign Language Department offers five languages in Paramus High School, namely, French, Spanish, Italian, German, and Latin. Each course includes not only the language study, but also the culture and history of a particular country. Great stress is placed upon oral expression. In the first year’s study of a language, basic grammar and vocabulary along with the history and culture of the country are covered. Each succeeding year adds in depth to the understanding of the language. By the fourth year, the student is ready to read the famous literature of the language. Language students are exposed to other aspects of the language study other than the classroom. Movies, newspapers, and visits to theaters and restaurants are all utilized to help the student learn the language as well as if he were in the foreign country.
