Swahili. An Active Introduction. General Conversation.
Indakwa, John; And Others
This textbook is aimed towards the beginning student of Swahili and is designed to cover almost all the main features of Swahili structure. The course is divided into 87 "cycles," each of which begins with an "M" phase (mimicry, meaning, manipulation, memorization), and ends with a "C" phase (conversation and communication). Each cycle should take about an hour to complete. The cycles are supplemented by five series of texts, each dealing with a particular theme and containing grammatical explanations and exercises. A Swahili-English glossary completes the volume. (AM)
