How to study
- Read a lesson from top to bottom and say every example aloud. Use the IPA column if you are unsure.
- Copy the Kurdish words by hand. Writing the script is the fastest way to learn it.
- Do the practice section before you open the answers.
- Move on when the summary at the end of the lesson feels obvious.
