Review

This self-study course book is a great resource for anyone who wishes to learn Eastern Armenian. It contains a carefully selected compilation of functional phrases, the grammar instructions are clear and concise and the overall approach is quite comprehensive. The only comment is that the spelling is not in the classical Armenian orthography. I will recommend this resource to anyone who wishes to learn Eastern Armenian. --Gilda Buchakjian Kupelian, Coordinator, Armenian Studies, Diocese of the Armenian Church of America (Eastern)
