This stand-alone, all-audio course can be used by those who have little or no knowledge of the language, by those who want to learn or brush up basicconversation skills, and by more advanced learners who require extra audio material to complement their current courses.
The ten units or 'conversations' cover the situations you are most likely to find yourself in while on holiday or on business abroad. Vocabulary and phrases in the first two CDs are kept to the basics and are introduced gradually with lots of opportunity to repeat and practise, to improve your confidence in both speaking and understanding.


The third CD concentrates on helping you improve your understanding, so that you will be able to hold two-way conversations with people who speak very fast or use words and phrases you do not know.
The course comes on three 75-minute CDs and has an accompanying 48-page booklet which gives the dialogues and the translations of the dialogues for those who like to see the written word or want additional practice. TheHindi is transliterated into romanized script. The booklet also provides a basic glossary of the words and phrases used.
This is the perfect complement to 'Teach Yourself Hindi' and 'Teach Yourself Beginner's Hindi'.
