  • Structured, progressive lessons to help you build confidence and fluency quickly
  • Practical dialogues focused on daily communication
  • Manga illustrations to facilitate memorization
  • Useful notes on the Burmese script and pronunciation
  • Greetings, requests, honorific forms and etiquette tips
  • A dictionary of commonly-used words and phrases

About the Author
Born and raised in Rangoon (Yangon), Burma (Myanmar), Kenneth Wong studied English at Rangoon University in the 1980s and bore witness to one of the seminal events of his generation--the 1988 student-led uprising against the country's military regime. He immigrated to the U.S. in 1989.

Wong is the author of A Prayer for Burma, a travelogue and memoir about growing up under military rule. His short stories, articles, and essays have appeared in Myanmar Times, Irrawaddy, San Francisco Chronicle, AGNI, and Grain magazines, among others. He discusses, translates, and shares the rich literary tradition of his homeland in his blog. He has contributed Burmese poetry translations to Eleven Eleven and Wolf magazines and is the author of Survival Burmese.
