Intermediate Level Hindi: A Textbook

Rating:
Summary: Not a self study book
Review: From the very first page in a chapter it starts with full devanagari text and no accompanying translation. The text ends abruptly to a glossary of the terms used. Then, it goes on like a vocabulary notebook that you'd keep in your pocket to memorize phrases. There are some exercises at the end of every chapter but no answer keys. This repeats in all the chapters.

Overall, if you study in the course with the author in the University in person, it may help. If you are looking for something for self-study to bridge the gap between beginner and intermediate level, dump this book. You're as good as the day you completed your beginner's course.

It just doesn't bridge the gap between beginner and intermediate level.
