$285.00
In stock
Includes a 498-page text, and thirteen audio CD discs ( = 12? hours). One of the major languages of western Africa, Igbo is spoken principally in the east-central par of Nigeria. This course includes tone drills, dialogs, short narratives, and vocabulary. The FSI Igbo Basic Course is based on the speech of two members of the Ezinehite group of Igbos in Central Owerri Province between the towns of Owerri and Umuahia, Eastern Nigeria; their speech is representative the dialect called "Central Igbo". The essential phonological and grammatical structures of Igbo are presented within a small vocabulary. This course is a companion with the courses in Twi, and Yoruba, two other languages of West Africa in the Niger-Congo family. It represents an effort to apply a combination of proven classroom techniques, and new ones that were especially devised for the teaching of complex tonal systems. Igbo has been less studied by trained linguists than some other African languages, so this course presents basic research into the structure of the language. The preparation of this course was based on classroom experience with Foreign Service Officers as students. Comes with 13 Audio CDs, and a 498-page book.
