Waray Lessons

Updated: 22 October 2008 TEST WEBSITE

NOTICE: I am looking for a partner to help run this website.
Anyone interested in helping maintain or assist in this website, please contact me at: barugoboy@fastmail.fm
My plans are to add a forum, spoken lessons (MP3), and tests.
If anyone would like to help me make this website better please contact me. I am looking for someone who speaks Waray that would produce a spoken (MP3) version of each lesson. Or even at a minimum, each vocabulary list, so that non-native speakers would have an idea how to pronounce each word.
We have plenty of visitors each day, so I know there is interest.
So, if you want to participate, I can always be reached at barugoboy@fastmail.fm
Thank you for your patience.

We have added a FORUM. If you register, you will have instant access to post and read entries. No email verification. The forum is in the TESTING stages, and will be undergoing constant updating. Waray Language FORUM
