Abstract	The course in beginning-level Czech is designed for adult students and businesspersons needing to learn use of the language in everyday circumstances. It emphasizes speaking and listening skills and contextualized language, focusing on meaning over form. The materials consist of 44 instructional units on nine topics: first social contact; social language; food; housing; transportation; shopping; telephone and postal services; health; and entertainment. The course introduces basic phrases, vocabulary, and structures. Each unit consists of: a statement of the main communicative competencies targeted; situation dialogues; introduction of a new phrase and relevant grammar; a summary of phrases; exercises; and cross-cultural notes. A final, reference chapter contains vocabulary lists for daily and emergency needs and situations. Answer keys and basic grammatical rules are appended. (MSE)
