Dear Friends and Colleagues,
Apologies for any cross-posting.
We are delighted to announce that 'Nepali: A Beginner's Primer, with
Conversational Dialogues and Grammar' is now online:
<http://lrc.cornell.edu/nepali/>
Hosted by Cornell University's Language Resource Centre, and developed
with a grant from the South Asia Language Resource Center at the
University of Chicago, the course comprises 16 lessons with dialogues,
associated audio and video content, an interactive bilingual glossary
(with audio pronunciation clips) and additional supplementary materials.
The core content of this beginner's course draws on the instructional
material devised by Shambhu and Banu Oja at Cornell University, used for
teaching over the last 25 years.
No registration is required to use the site. However, we are currently
assessing the usage and efficacy of this online resource and are eager
to find volunteers who may help. If you would be willing to respond to
some questions about your usage, and offer constructive feedback, please
send an email to Dick Feldman at <[log in to unmask]>. The materials are
all offered for free online, so we do appreciate your efforts to help us
evaluate them.
Good wishes,
Kathryn March, Shambhu Oja and Mark Turin
