Description
Twi Comprehensive is meant to introduce a non-Twi beginner to the spoken language. It may also be used by those who have some knowledge of the language, but who want to improve their competence in it.
Twi Comprehensive is divided into three sections; Vocabulary section, Dialogue section and Exercise section. The main focus of what the app deals with is the spoken language, and every effort has been made to ensure that the dialogues are as natural and as close to current everyday usage as possible.
The app may be used with or without an instructor. It comes with audio accompanying every word or sentence, and the learner is advised to listen to them and shadow them as often as is necessary to get, especially, the intonation right.
Twi Comprehensive is a must, not only for anyone who wants to relate to people from Ghana whether he or she is on a short or an extended visit, but also for non-Ghanaians who are interested in the Twi language or require a working knowledge in the language.
Twi Comprehensive is heavily based on 'A Comprehensive Course In Twi (Asante) for the Non-Twi Learner' written by Professor Florence Abena Dolphyne.
Professor Florence Abena Dolphyne has been teaching in the Department of Linguistics in the University of Ghana since 1965.
