An Audio Cassette Course in Kashmiri

Description

Autor/Publisher: Central Institute of Indian Languages Publication date: 2002 Number of pages: 114 ISBN: 8173420904 Language:English/KashmiriThe Cassette Course on Kashmiri language, produced and introduced by Roop Krishen Bhat,Principal of our Northern Centre at Patiala, is a step in the direction of promoting and propagating teaching/learning of this immensely rich language. The cassettes would be invaluable tools for those who wish to use them as self-instructional materials placing it along-side our regular course materials on Kashmiri. The present Cassette Course in Kashmiri has been produced in the same series. Our teaching materials have so far been tried out through a series of 10 months Intensive Training Programme currently offered in the seven regional centres of the Institute at three levels: Basic, Intermediate and Advanced courses. The present set is, however, suitable to be used not only for such language learners who are to be taught as a part of our programme, but also by those who have had introduction to the language through a formal system, and yet have not had chance to go beyond the basics. They cover a wide range of speech styles used in the language so that both teachers and auto-learners of Kashmiri as a L2 could benefit. The text used here are not merely instances of ideal spoken styles, they are also used to emphasize on certain recurring grammatical patterns and lexical coinages.
