| If
you want to progress quickly from the basics to understanding,
speaking and writing Vietnamese with confidence, then
Teach Yourself Vietnamese is the course for you.
Although aimed at those with no previous knowledge, it
is equally suitable for anyone wishing to brush up existing
knowledge for a holiday or business trip. Key
structures and vocabulary are introduced in 18 thematic
units progressing from introducing yourself and dealing
with everyday situations to making a phone call and
travelling in Vietnam. You will become familiar with
many aspects of life in Vietnam as well as the language.
The emphasis is on communication throughout with important
language structures introduced through dialogues in
each unit. These build up to give you a command of the
essential phrases that you will need on a trip to Vietnam.
There are plenty of exercises to practise the language
as it is introduced and tips throughout to help with
grammar.
The CD provides approximately 1 hour
of listening material and accompanies the book. The
book and CD are also available as a pack. |
