Review
Surpasses many of the previous publications not only in terms of the composition of the text but also in the systematic presentation of the text on two tapes and on two CDs. - Archiv Orientálni. Quarterly Journal of African and Asian Studies, vol. 72
Customer Reviews
not good for anything
this is terrible and doesnt really tech you anything except words that sound similar but are different... not really usefull at any skill level
Colloquial does not equate to "Conversational"
I got this CD to learn how to SPEAK Tamil. I did not find this CD that user friendly. If anything, I would compare it to taking a college level Tamil course, when one really just needs a Berlitz immersion course.
A great gift fro a fellow in need
These books are not available Seoul, Korea, and so this was a gift. To a lingist and friend who expressed interest in Tamil. Eaxactly right for that kind of person.
