Central and Eastern Arrernte vocab and grammar

This course builds vocabulary knowledge and builds those words slowly into sentences. It relies on the Eastern and Central Arrernte Grammar book, with recordings from Veronica Dobson and MK Turner. Sentences have also been collected from resources used in the Arrernte language course at the Alice Springs Language Centre. If you would like to edit the course or add your own content to it, you can become a contributor. Just send me a message.
