` Practical Taiwanese Conversation

Practical Taiwanese Conversation

Goal

To teach those who speak very little or no Taiwanese to be able to to use Taiwanese to communicate in a daily life.

All materials will be written in Modern Taiwanese Language (MTL) which is similar to Romoniazation Taiwanese. "Harnji" (i.e. Chinese characters) or English will be provided to facilitate the learning process.

MLT will be used as a tool for pronunciation due to it's closeness to the tone of Taiwanese. The focus areas are: listening, and speaking. Writing will be secondary.
