Product Description

"Beginner's Yoruba" is now available with two accompanying audio CDs. It provides an introduction to the Yoruba language, which is spoken by over 30 million people in south-western Nigeria, parts of the Benin Republic, and Togo, as well as in the diaspora populations of Brazil, Cuba, and Haiti. The 15 lessons are designed for both classroom use and self-study. Practice dialogues, combined with grammatical explanations, aid the student in understanding the basics of the language. Each lesson also contains a vocabulary section that highlights the important aspects of its featured topic. The audio CDs, which complement the lessons, help the student easily master the language's unique tones and vowel sounds, often considered the most difficult aspect of the language to learn. Quizzes and practice exercises are integrated into the lessons to help reinforce the material. The book also includes information on various aspects of Yoruba culture, including religion, songs, and folklore.

4.0 out of 5 stars Beginner's Yoruba, 25 April 2006

By	deborrahhbee (England) - See all my reviews

I have found it to be quite helpful in learning the language, and the 2 CDs assist greatly in learning to properly pronounce words. My only quibble was that the songs in the book are not on the CDs, as singing along would be another good way to learn the language and pronounciations. I would definitely recommend this book and the Yoruba Dictionary by the same author.
