Excerpt from The Easiest German Reading for Learners Young or Old: With Questions for Drill in Speaking and Writing, a Vocabulary, and an Introduction on the Teaching of Language

The learning of a language consists in the association of verbal symbols with the ideas they represent, be these symbols words, inflections, or syntactical constructions. By association is meant such close attachment to one another in the mind that when one is present the other will be immediately suggested. The mastery of a language is, therefore, dependent on the inti macy and the immediateness of this association of idea and symbol, and the chief concern of the language teacher must be the establishment of this association. But idea and symbol cannot adhere unless they coexist in the mind of the learner. N or is it sufiicient that the idea lurk somewhere in the recesses of his brain; it must be present in consciousness, and that as vividly as possible, at the time that the symbol is being learned.
