Perché le letture graduate funzionano

La ricerca conferma che la lettura estensiva è uno dei modi più efficaci per costruire il vocabolario e migliorare la fluidità. Le letture graduate adattano la difficoltà del testo al tuo livello CEFR, così ogni pagina è abbastanza stimolante da imparare ma abbastanza facile da godere. Ogni libro include un dizionario accanto al testo, esercizi per capitolo e pratica del vocabolario online — tutto ciò di cui hai bisogno in un unico pacchetto.

Formati: e-book, paperback e super audiolibro

I nostri graded reader sono disponibili in diversi formati. Il testo, il livello CEFR e il glossario sono gli stessi in ogni formato — cambia solo il modo in cui leggi. Scegli quello che si adatta alla tua giornata: l'e-book sul telefono mentre vai al lavoro, carta e matita alla tua scrivania, o il super audiolibro quando vuoi leggere e ascoltare contemporaneamente.

E-book (EPUB e PDF). Puoi scaricare entrambi i file subito dopo l'acquisto e leggerli su e-reader, telefono, tablet o computer. Le parole difficili hanno la loro traduzione in una nota pop-up: un tocco e sei di nuovo nella storia, senza bisogno di dizionario. Ogni capitolo termina con esercizi di vocabolario e un link ti porta a praticare online gratuitamente con le stesse parole.

Paperback. Un classico libro con copertina morbida, stampato su ordinazione e spedito per posta. Il glossario si trova a margine, proprio accanto alla parola che spiega, così non devi mai sfogliare le pagine. I capitoli terminano con cruciverba ed esercizi di vocabolario, e i codici QR ti portano alla pratica online sul tuo telefono. Un'ottima scelta se ti piace scrivere nei tuoi libri o vuoi una pausa dagli schermi.

Il super audiolibro: leggi, ascolta e controlla i significati contemporaneamente

Un super audiolibro è un audiolibro in formato karaoke. Un narratore legge il libro ad alta voce mentre lo stesso testo è davanti a te, con un indicatore che si muove parola per parola. Sai sempre quale parola stai ascoltando, così non perdi mai il filo — anche quando il narratore parla più velocemente di quanto tu legga. Le tue orecchie dicono ai tuoi occhi come suona una parola scritta, i tuoi occhi dicono alle tue orecchie come si scrive ciò che senti, ed entrambi i percorsi rafforzano le stesse parole contemporaneamente.

La vera differenza si vede quando incontri una parola che non conosci. In un audiolibro normale scompare in un secondo; in un super audiolibro rimane a portata di mano: le parole del glossario sono evidenziate a colori, e tenendone premuta una si mostra la sua traduzione nella tua lingua. Controlli il significato, continui ad ascoltare e non perdi mai il filo. Un cursore imposta la velocità del narratore da 0.5× a 1.5× — rallenta all'inizio per cogliere ogni sillaba, poi accelera verso il parlato naturale. Le parole che incontri durante la lettura tornano più tardi in brevi esercizi nell'app, come un mini cruciverba o la costruzione di una parola dalle sue lettere.

La lettura con ascolto è ben supportata dalla ricerca. In un programma canadese descritto da Lightbown e colleghi (2002), i bambini che per tre anni hanno imparato l'inglese solo in questo modo — leggendo libri mentre ascoltavano le loro registrazioni — hanno compreso la lingua altrettanto bene o meglio dei coetanei istruiti in classi regolari. Waring e Takaki (2003) hanno dimostrato che è necessario incontrare una parola almeno otto volte per avere anche solo il 50% di possibilità di riconoscerla tre mesi dopo. Ascoltare di nuovo un capitolo ti offre esattamente quegli incontri extra con le stesse parole — senza aver bisogno di un nuovo testo.

Ai livelli A1 e A2 il super audiolibro ti aiuta a collegare l'ortografia con la pronuncia — particolarmente prezioso nelle lingue che non si leggono come si scrivono, o che usano un alfabeto diverso. Ai livelli B1 e B2 ti accompagna al ritmo del parlato reale, così ti abitui all'ascolto fluente e smetti di fare pause ad ogni frase. I lettori avanzati spesso non hanno affatto bisogno di un narratore — ecco perché decidi tu quando attivarlo e quando leggere in silenzio.

Il super audiolibro viene riprodotto nell'app Pentecost o nel tuo browser, su telefono, tablet o computer. Puoi aggiungerlo a un e-book: sulla pagina del libro, seleziona “Aggiungi l'audiolibro” nella casella dell'e-book; se possiedi già l'e-book, puoi acquistare la registrazione separatamente. Con accesso illimitato puoi ascoltare ogni super audiolibro registrato senza limiti, e ogni mese puoi sbloccare la registrazione di un libro che non ne ha ancora una — viene narrato per te, e l'app ti avvisa quando è pronto. Il filtro Audiolibri mostra i titoli con una registrazione, e puoi riprodurre un campione gratuito senza creare un account.

Sugli scrittori e i traduttori

Gli scrittori classici di questa lista vengono prima; i curatori di Pentecost che hanno adattato questi lettori seguono nel blocco successivo.

  • Antoine de Saint-Exupéry: Antoine de Saint-Exupéry (1900–1944) was a French writer and aviator who drew on his own flying adventures. In 1944 his plane vanished over the Mediterranean during a reconnaissance flight, and the wreckage was only found more than half a century later.
  • Arthur Conan Doyle: Arthur Conan Doyle (1859–1930) was a Scottish physician and writer, the creator of Sherlock Holmes. The brilliant detective was modelled on his university teacher, Dr. Joseph Bell, famous for his razor-sharp powers of observation.
  • George Orwell: George Orwell (1903–1950) was the pen name of Eric Arthur Blair, an English writer who fought in the Spanish Civil War. He coined terms such as "Big Brother" and "Newspeak," and his name gave us the adjective "Orwellian."
  • Jane Austen: Jane Austen (1775–1817) was an English novelist whose books were published anonymously in her lifetime, signed only "By a Lady." She completed just six novels, and today her portrait appears on the British £10 note.
  • Jules Verne: Jules Verne (1828–1905) was a French writer known as the father of science fiction and one of the most translated authors in the world. In his novels he foresaw submarines and space travel long before they existed.
  • Lewis Carroll: Lewis Carroll (1832–1898) was the pen name of Charles Dodgson, an Oxford mathematician and logician. He invented the story of Alice during a boat trip, to entertain a real little girl named Alice Liddell.
  • Louisa May Alcott: Louisa May Alcott (1832–1888) was an American writer who grew up among the Transcendentalists — Ralph Waldo Emerson and Henry David Thoreau were family friends. She served as a nurse during the Civil War and, before her fame, published sensational thrillers under the male pen name A. M. Barnard.
  • Lucy Maud Montgomery: Lucy Maud Montgomery (1874–1942) was a Canadian writer from Prince Edward Island who set her novels in the landscapes of her childhood. Thanks to Anne of Green Gables, the island became a place of pilgrimage for readers from around the world.

Traduttori e curatori

I curatori di Pentecost adattano il vocabolario e le note affinché la storia rimanga chiara al tuo livello.

  • Aino Snow: Aino Snow adapts Finnish fiction for English-speaking readers in the graded-reader series. Finnish cases and consonant gradation get short, reusable glosses instead of a grammar essay on every page. She prefers footnotes that point forward—hinting that a form will return—so readers start to recognise patterns.
  • Angela Borderkeeper: Angela Borderkeeper adapts German-language stories for English readers who are building vocabulary through extensive reading. She balances literal clarity with readable English, especially where German stacks nouns or uses modal particles that do not map neatly. Her side notes focus on collocations learners will meet again in real newspapers and podcasts.
  • Aniela Pogranicznik: Aniela Pogranicznik przygotowuje polskie opracowania tekstów niemieckich w serii dla samouków. Zwraca uwagę na to, by zdania były krótkie tam, gdzie trzeba, ale żeby nie straciły naturalnego szyku — szczególnie w scenach dialogowych. Często wraca do swoich notatek z kursów dla nauczycieli, gdy układa glosariusze i przypisy do trudniejszych zwrotów.
  • Anne Frank: Anne Frank edits English support text for Dutch originals in the series. She is careful with false friends between Dutch and English and flags them early in the glossary. When a joke depends on word order, she looks for an English equivalent that keeps the beat of the scene instead of explaining the punchline away.
  • Catherine Thief: Catherine Thief edits English support layers for Portuguese originals, comparing European and Brazilian variants when the source mixes them. She prefers one clear editorial choice per title rather than hedging in every footnote. She reads aloud to catch phrasing that still sounds like translationese.
  • Christine Guardian: Christine Guardian edits graded-reader adaptations of French fiction for English-speaking adults. She keeps an eye on register—literary French can sound stiff in English if you translate every clause—and prefers footnotes that support the scene rather than pause it. She still reads long-form journalism in French to stay close to how people actually write today.
  • Clara Fieldlove: Clara Fieldlove edits English-language scaffolding around Spanish narratives for the extensive-reading list. She steers clear of over-literal cognates that mislead beginners and prefers short glosses tied to the immediate context. She has a soft spot for dialogue-heavy chapters where rhythm matters as much as vocabulary.
  • Edwina Finbow: Edwina Finbow edits English-facing material for Icelandic fiction in the graded-reader programme. Icelandic inflection and compound formation get one clear gloss at first occurrence, then lighter reminders. She likes crime and family drama where everyday vocabulary does most of the storytelling work.
  • Grace Earthland: Grace Earthland prepares English commentary for Norwegian texts in the graded-reader programme. Norwegian’s compact clauses can read abrupt in English; she smooths the seams while keeping the emotional temperature of the scene. She coordinates closely with whoever writes the chapter exercises so examples match the chapter’s new items.
  • Greta Thunderhill: Greta Thunderhill adapts Swedish fiction for English-speaking learners using the Pentecost graded format. She keeps an eye on compound words that look long but are common in Swedish, and explains them once where they recur. She likes endings where the payoff is emotional rather than lexical—those need the lightest touch in the notes.
  • Helen Rainbow: Helen Rainbow prepares the English support layer for Hawaiian texts in the graded-reader programme. The ʻokina and the kahakō change what a word means, so she keeps them in every gloss instead of tidying them away. She watches the a-class and o-class possessives, where English “my” hides a distinction Hawaiian insists on.
  • Inga Clay: Inga Clay prepares English-facing materials for Danish fiction in the graded-reader line. Danish often drops subjects; she makes sure the English scaffolding still feels natural while the original stays visible on the facing page or in the margin notes. She enjoys working on small-town settings where everyday vocabulary carries most of the plot.
  • Katarzyna Złodziej: Katarzyna Złodziej przygotowuje polskie teksty towarzyszące portugalskojęzycznej beletrystyce w serii na różne poziomy CEFR. Bacznie rozróżnia wariant europejski i brazylijski, gdy w oryginale ma to znaczenie. W pracy redakcyjnej woli jedną jasną decyzję niż pięć kompromisów, które rozmywają głos narratora.
  • Klara Linden: Klara Linden adapts Czech fiction for English-speaking readers in the Pentecost graded line. Seven cases and verb aspect carry what English does with prepositions and auxiliaries; she glosses an aspect pair once and lets the story repeat it. She points out where Czech word order carries the emphasis English would mark with stress.
  • Klara Polanowicz: Klara Polanowicz tłumaczy i upraszcza hiszpańskojęzyczne narracje dla polskich czytelników w serii lektur gradowanych. Często pracuje nad rejestrem: hiszpański z Ameryki Łacińskiej i z Półwyspu wymaga innych decyzji po polsku. W przypisach stawia na krótkość i kontekst, żeby słownik nie zasłaniał fabuły.
  • Krystyna Strażnik: Krystyna Strażnik od lat zajmuje się przekładem i redakcją tekstów literackich z francuskiego na polski dla dorosłych czytelników. W pracy nad wersjami uproszczonymi pilnuje, by poziom słownictwa zgadzał się z etykietą CEFR, a jednocześnie nie gubił się humor ani rytm dialogów. Prywatnie dużo czyta współczesną prozę francuskojęzyczną i chętnie poleca tytuły, które dobrze brzmią także po polsku.
  • Małgorzata Strzecharz: Małgorzata Strzecharz redaguje polskie wersje uproszczonych lektur do nauki angielskiego — od poziomów początkowych po średniozaawansowane. Łączy doświadczenie szkolne z pracą przy materiałach do czytania ekstensywnego: ważne jest dla niej, żeby bohaterowie nie brzmieli jak sztucznie uproszczone manekiny. Po godzinach i tak sięga po anglojęzyczne kryminały, bo lubi sprawdzać, jak brzmi żywy, współczesny idiom.
  • Margarete Reetdachdeckerin: Margarete Reetdachdeckerin verantwortet die deutsche Bearbeitung begleitender Texte zu englischsprachigen Lektüren der gestuften Reihe. Sie erklärt Phrasal verbs und idiomatische Kurzformen so, dass sie im Kapitel wiedererkennbar werden, ohne dass jede Seite zur Grammatiktafel wird. Sie liest laut, wenn ein Dialog noch nach Übungsbuch klingt.
  • Margherita Tettaiola: Margherita Tettaiola scrive e rivede testi in inglese con un occhio al lettore che passa dalle scuole superiori a esigenze professionali. Si occupa soprattutto di rendere le sfumature colloquiali comprensibili, senza cadere in calchi che suonano finti agli nativi. I glossari che prepara privilegiano le collocazioni, quelle combinazioni di parole che fanno suonare naturale una frase. Quando introduce un autore, preferisce poche biografie fattuali e un contesto culturale che renda plausibili le scelte stilistiche.
  • Marie Bender: Marie Bender adapts Polish literary texts for English speakers learning Polish through parallel reading and footnoted editions. She explains case endings and aspect pairs in short, plain English, then lets the Polish carry the voice of the narrator. She reads each chapter twice: once for accuracy, once for pace.
  • Mary Guide: Mary Guide edits English-facing material for Japanese originals in the series. She explains honorifics and sentence-final particles in plain English without turning every line into a lecture. She still listens to casual Japanese podcasts to keep colloquial markers feeling current in the notes.
  • Nora Harper: Nora Harper edits the English notes for Irish texts in the extensive-reading list. Initial mutations hide the form a learner would look up, so her first gloss gives the plain word beside the one on the page. She keeps the “tá … ag” way of owning things apart from the copula, because English “is” blurs both.
  • Pauline Bird: Pauline Bird adapts Chinese-language fiction for English readers in the graded-reader line. She helps decide when to gloss a measure word, a place name, or a four-character idiom, and when context can carry the load. She likes contemporary urban settings because they recycle high-frequency vocabulary in natural ways.
  • Renata Górski: Renata Górski przygotowuje polskie opracowania włoskiej beletrystyki w poziomach od A1 wzwyż. Wychodzi z założenia, że czytanie ma być przyjemnością, nie ćwiczeniem mechanicznym, więc czasem walczy z redakcją o jeden przymiotnik więcej, jeśli ratuje klimat sceny. Zna dobrze włoskie dialekty tylko z literatury, ale to wystarczy, żeby nie mylić Toskanii z północą w dialogu.
  • Rita Bergmann: Rita Bergmann redigiert vereinfachte italienische Texte mit deutscher Unterstützungsebene für die Serie. Regionale Marker—Norden, Süden, Stadt vs. Land—versieht sie mit leichten Hinweisen, wo sie die Handlung tragen. Ihr Ziel bleibt: flüssig lesen, ohne jede Zeile im Wörterbuch zu verbringen.
  • Rita Mounts: Rita Mounts works on English notes and simplified renderings for Italian fiction in the graded series. She watches out for regional markers—north versus south—that English readers might miss without a light gloss. Her goal is that someone on a commute can follow the plot without stopping every line.
  • Ruta Amber: Ruta Amber prepares the English commentary for Lithuanian texts in the graded-reader programme. Lithuanian leans on participles where English would open a new clause, so she unpacks the first few and then trusts repetition. She notes the diminutives that carry affection rather than size, which a literal gloss loses.
  • Sophie Stay-Maggot: Sophie Stay-Maggot works on English notes for Russian fiction in the graded series. She balances literary archaism with the labelled CEFR level, sometimes marking a form as “recognition only” so readers are not asked to produce it too early. She pays extra attention to names, patronymics, and diminutives that carry social information.
  • Theresa White: Theresa White edits English support text for Hebrew originals in the extensive-reading list. She distinguishes modern Israeli usage from biblical echoes when it matters for comprehension, and keeps glosses short enough not to bury the plot. She coordinates Hebrew spelling and vocalisation choices across a whole book so they stay consistent.
  • Zofia Postojska-Czerwień: Zofia Postojska-Czerwień redaguje polskie wersje rosyjskojęzycznych tekstów w serii dla samouków. Dobrze czuje różnice między współczesnym idiomem a archaizmem literackim i stara się nie mieszać ich w jednym poziomie trudności bez sygnału dla czytelnika. Lubi pracę nad dialogiem: rosyjski potrafi być bardzo bezpośredni, a polski wymaga czasem innego balansu grzecznościowego.
  • Мария Гибкая: Мария Гибкая работает с польскими падежными цепочками так, чтобы они подкрепляли сюжет, а не отвлекали от него. В сносках — минимальный парадигматический набор и один-два примера; задания строго на формы, встреченные в тексте. Перед печатью она сверяет падежные подсказки с фактическими формами в тексте, чтобы не осталось «висячих» ссылок на несуществующие окончания.

Ogni libro è disponibile come e-book (EPUB e PDF) e come edizione tascabile. Molti titoli sono disponibili anche come audiolibro: un narratore legge nell'app mentre ogni parola si illumina, in stile karaoke.
