Abstract:

Intensive Tausug was written to serve as either a self-study pedagogical 
grammar or an interactive classroom textbook aimed at introducing the 
student to the fundamental skills of listening, speaking, reading, and writing 
in the language of Jolo Island and vicinity (Pata, Marunggas, Tapul and 
Lugus), and the lingua franca of the Sulu Archipelago, Philippines. This book 
is divided into twenty lessons, each one centered around a number of 
grammatically, thematically or culturally relevant dialogues. New vocabulary 
that occurs in the dialogues immediately follows each dialogue.

Intensive Tausug was designed with an aggressive curricular agenda under 
the assumption that most users of the book will have already proficiency in 
Tagalog or another Philippine languages, so much of the description focuses 
on phenomena in Tausug that are divergent from Tagalog, rather than 
Austronesian features that would seem exotic to an English speaker.
