CHAPTER 8 MANIPULATIONS BASED ON NEWS ITEMS (SWAHILI)
serve as reminders of the full range of 'routine manipulations' for use with news items (or other text material) that may be selected in the future.
Certain other types of pedagogical apparatus which appear in the original have been omitted from these examples.
The 'thinking man's glossary,' however, has been retained. English translations in [] have been added for the benefit of readers who are not students of Swahili. Note that in the sense of Chapter 3, these are not fully developed lessons: they contain 'samples of language use,' and opportunities for 'structural exploration,' but they do not provide for 'lexical exploration' or (more important) for using the materials in ways that conform to the student's own non-linguistic purposes.
