- Free, downloadable native-speaker audio recordings to help you master correct pronunciation and intonation
- Structured, progressive lessons to help you build confidence and fluency quickly
- Practical dialogues focused on daily communication
- Manga illustrations to facilitate memorization
- Useful notes on the Burmese script and pronunciation
- Greetings, requests, honorific forms and etiquette tips
- A dictionary of commonly-used words and phrases
