More than 750,000 Westerners visit Nepal and Bhutan every year -- now they can communicate during their journey. This complete course is aimed at adult beginners who wish to learn Nepali, but have no knowledge of the language's script. It includes grammar, culture notes, and a pronunciation guide. Two audiocassettes feature dialogue recorded by native speakers.
I didn't do much out of this book other than the first couple chapters. And I did it without the audio. But I did successfully learn the alphabet and some basic phrases, with success being measured by testing it out in Nepal.
