4.0 out of 5 stars Good brief, basic reference for self-study and use
Greetings.

Just as the book describes itself, this is a brief and basic introduction to "social Kurdish" in the Sorany dialect.

The well-organized package is very useful for getting started in the language and dialect.

My only complaint, and based on my admittedly-specialized work as a community volunteer for incoming Iraqi Kurdish refugee families, is...

To study Soran dialect,this is very good for beginners,I think. But I'm very sorry that I can't study Kurmanji dialect with this book. We may confuse there is no difference between the two when we take a look for the first time.

This review is from: Easy Way to Kurdish (Book/Cassette Course) (Audio Cassette)
Greetings.

Just as the book describes itself, this is a brief and basic introduction to "social Kurdish" in the Sorany dialect.

The well-organized package is very useful for getting started in the language and dialect.

My only complaint, and based on my admittedly-specialized work as a community volunteer for incoming Iraqi Kurdish refugee families, is that the book's contents would be much more useful (perhaps in a revised edition or add-on supplement) by:

o expanding the two-age section on a visit to the clinic to include "new patient" interviews and obtaining family information on medical / health histories

and

o adding pages of situations and Q&A relating to the reception and hosting of new arrivals, plus receiving public social services.

The supporting audiocassette tapes are very helpful.

Wish there were more such materials around.

All best regards.
