New publication - bāteṁ. Hindi-Grammatik kommunikativ : Übungsbände 1+2

As part of the four-volume textbook bāteṁ. Hindi-Grammatik kommunikativ (Two textbooks, each with an accompanying workbook) by Elmar Josef Renner and Vipul Goswami, workbook volumes 1 and 2 have now been published.

The Copenhagen Hindi Course contextualises grammar in 46 lessons. This allows a communicative teaching approach. The contexts are taken from the lives of the authors and their families and friends. Instead of representing a textbook that pledges to offer a complete view on Hindi speaking society, the textual fragments underlying the exercises invite teachers and learners to offer their own perspectives while communicating in Hindi in order to acquire it.

Each lesson is centered around one main grammatical structure and provides a variety of exercises which makes the workbook applicable in various course formats.
