“With unparalleled cultural accuracy, the Chamorro Word Book celebrates language and culture through the pictures by Roland Miranda. This unique resource, written for the preservation of Chamorro, the original language of Guam and the Mariana Islands, includes subjects such as greetings and daily expressions, family, food, body parts, tradition, animals, school, numbers, colors and time.”
—Multicultural Review
“When I heard about this new reference text Chamorro Word Book, I was hopeful that it would contain sufficient pragmatic guidance to permit the acquisition of a foreign tongue, and was enthusiastic about the possibility of actually starting to speak Chamorro. I was not disappointed.
This slim volume is both accessible and academically comprehensive.”
