5.0 out of 5 stars Tongan Tapes, July 5, 2001
By 
"emlundell" (Logan, Utah United States) - See all my reviews
I found purchasing Eric B. Shumway's "Intensive Course in Tongan" tapes, very helpful as a student wanting to learn the Tongan language. Although buying the book with the tapes is a necessity. I found the readings on the tapes to be very clear and easy to follow along with. The reader gives you plenty of time to repeat after them, which is very effective in learning. Also the songs and readings are very entertaining. This is a good buy for a serious Tongan language learning student. Also these are the only Tongan language tapes I could find out there.

5.0 out of 5 stars excellent introduction to Tongan, October 12, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Intensive Course in Tongan: With Numerous Supplementary Materials, Grammatical Notes, and Glossary (Paperback)
This is an excellent introduction to Tongan when used with the tapes. It introduces grammatical points and vocabulary in a well ordered format. It's a great book to use when learning "fakaTonga", the beatiful Tongan language.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, October 26, 2007
This review is from: Intensive Course in Tongan: With Numerous Supplementary Materials, Grammatical Notes, and Glossary (Paperback)
A great book for absolute beginners. It has many examples of sentences in Tongan which helps a lot. I wish I had such books for other languages too
