"Quite simply the most serious early intermediate textbook
currently available for thoughtful American students at the
university level."--Professor Stephen O'Harrow, Director, Center
for Southeast Asian Studies, University of Hawai'i at Manoa This is
a second-year, intermediate Vietnamese language course designed for
high school, college or self-study. Continuing Vietnamese is your
next step toward master; it follows the best-selling,
linguistically-based Elementary Vietnamese, and helps you progress
to an intermediate level of communicating in Vietnamese. Invaluable
for anyone planning to travel, study or work in Vietnam, this
complete language course has been extensively tested at Harvard
University. The accompanying MP3 audio CD helps to develop
listening comprehension and ensure correct pronunciation. The book
contains ten lessons, each composed of two parts. Part 1, the
dialogue part, introduces the learner to conversational Vietnamese
as it's currently spoken in Hanoi so that the learner will be able
to participate in engaging conversation on a variety of topics.
Part 2, the narrative part, includes written materials that are
characteristic of formal Vietnamese. It aims to develop the
learner's reading and writing skills as well as speaking skills.
The lessons focuse on various aspects of life in present-day
Vietnam, including topics such as culture, history, geography,
economy, theater, music, tourism, literature, poetry, cinema and
sports. Each lesson helps you to learn Vietnamese by building your
Vietnamese proficiency using several complementary elements to
thoroughly develop your skills in reading, writing, listening and
speaking. Key features of Continuing Vietnamese include: MP3 Audio
files offering native speakers' renditions of all the dialogues and
narratives, vocabulary, grammar and usage explanations, everyday
Vietnamese expressions, pronunciation drills and exercises, and
even some popular Vietnamese proverbs. Exercises and practice
activities which hone your skills throughout the learning process.
Cultural notes that help bring Vietnam to life. A contemporary
focus on today's Vietnamese speech patterns. A format that sharpens
all four language skills: listening, speaking, writing and reading.
