Teach Yourself Xhosa is intended
for all who are interested in learning one of the most
widely spoken languages in South Africa. It is aimed
at both South Africans and visitors to South Africa
and those who are learning Xhosa from scratch, as well
as those who want to brush up their existing skills.
Wherever possible, the communicative
aspect of the language has been emphasised to give you
a course which is useful and practical. Cultural background
and information forms an integral part of the course
and will help you get the most out of a visit to South
Africa.
The book is divided into 16 units which
range from basic functions and language usage in the
initial units to a more varied and complex usage in
the later units.
The introduction and the accompanying
cassette, which is available separately (ISBN 0340 87113X)
or together with the book in a pack (ISBN 0340 871121)
will help you with the famous 'clicks' for which the
language is famous. |
