The
TWI Language:
The
official language of Africa is English, however, Twi is an African
language spoken in the southern two-thirds of Ghana. Like most languages
spoken south of the Sahara, Twi is a tone language, which means
that word distinction is determined not only by vowels and consonants,
but also by the pitch on which each syllable is pronounced. There
are many different dialects, but all dialects are mutually intelligible.
They are written by a common script developed by the Bureau of Ghana
Languages. The Pimsleur courses feature native speakers from Accra. |

The
Pimsleur Method:
With
Pimsleur language courses, you will quickly learn to speak Twi and
understand it as well. You're not just learning "phrases"
with the Pimsleur method, you're acquiring essential, conversational
language skills! You'll be thrilled to discover you can hold real
conversations in your new language when you have finished the course.
Dr. Pimsleur devoted his life to language
teaching and was one of the world’s leading experts in applied
linguistics. After years of research and development, including
field studies of spoken language training with adults, Dr. Pimsleur
created a new method for self–instruction in spoken languages
that is based on the way the human brain takes in language as speech.
Of the several unique features of the Method, two key principles:
the Principle of Anticipation
and a scientific principle of memory that he called Graduated
Interval Recall This is the only language teaching program which
incorporates these essential principles to provide you with the
most easy–to–do, amazingly rapid, and highly cost–effective
learning method available.
