Latvian language basics

Latvian language basics

The students will learn basic information about the Latvian language like:

• Alphabet

• Phonetics

• Basic phrases

• Basic grammar

• Word spelling

This course consists of lessons on vocabulary and grammar. I made the first lessons as simple as possible for beginners to grasp the new language. One of them is with spelling out all alphabet letters. That's because some of the letters can sound different than in the English language, and also specific letters like č, which many students might not be familiar with in linguistics. I also included a lesson with basic phrases like please or good night.

To make the lesson process visually teachable, I'm using dolls and other objects like technology or toys. For example, the dolls I use are in both genders or amounts, and I use them to give word examples in singular and plural, feminine and masculine forms.

After any lesson, I added a small quiz so any student can test their knowledge of the new information they just learned.

So after this course, you will have a better understanding of the Latvian language and get the ability to read a text in Latvian. It can be not easy at first since the letter spelling is a little bit different from the English alphabet, but it's good to take up a challenge.

This course can inspire students to learn the Latvian language to the next level. For example, tsking the Latvian language from a basic language level to an intermediate and advanced one.

Learn about Latvian language. It's alphabet, spelling of words, basic grammar and simple phrases like ,,Hello! Goodbye!
