Shanghai Dialect: An Introduction to Speaking the Contemporary Language
Lance Eccles
This book contains twenty-nine units, each of which contains two brief dialogues, a vocabulary to the dialogues, and a supplementary word list. The supplementary word list, taken as a whole, forms a short classified vocabulary. Because this book is intended chiefly for those who already have some knowledge of Putonghua, grammatical explanations have been confined to occasional brief notes. With audio recordings of the articles read by a native speaker. 1993, 230 pages, hardbound.
