I haven’t had much time to use my new Learning Niuean: The Combined Edition book lately; however, I really like it and am happy to start up my studies.
It seems to be fairly organized with conversations, vocabulary and grammar points in each lesson. There is a simple, concise pronunciation guide in the beginning with a preface on the language and its history. I like how there are pictures that show the culture of the island as well.
So, I hope that anyone learning Niuean seriously would consider purchasing this book. The only drawback is that I was charged US$37 dollars, when the price was NZ$37, which is about US$21. However, it was worth it.
Talk to you soon!
Koe kia,
Brian
