Sinopse

"Harappan Script" explores the enduring mystery of the Harappan writing system, a still-undeciphered script from the Indus Valley Civilization. Understanding this Bronze Age script is crucial, as its decipherment could unlock insights into the civilization's social structure and potential linguistic connections to later South Asian populations. The book delves into the script's characteristics, considering its visual aspects and frequency of certain symbols, while also evaluating past attempts to break the code. Intriguingly, the directionality of the script has been determined, and inscriptions have been found on various materials, offering clues to its purpose. The book presents a comprehensive overview in three parts, beginning with an introduction to the script and its physical attributes. It then moves into a critical assessment of past decipherment attempts, categorizing them to highlight their limitations. Finally, the book explores whether there are links between the Harappan script and later South Asian scripts, such as Brahmi, analyzing linguistic and archaeological evidence. Ultimately, "Harappan Script" emphasizes a rigorous, evidence-based approach to decipherment, encouraging disciplined research grounded in verifiable data, moving beyond speculative interpretations.

    We broke our new series on learning Portuguese down into different learning stages. Start with the "Lower Beginner" books followed by the "Beginner" and "Upper Beginner" books. Next, progress to the "Intermediate" series, then test and reinforce your knowledge with the "Conversations" series. 
    This audiobook is divided into units.While it provides different learning patterns and accommodates various needs, this audiobook focuses on helping you improve your ability to understand, speak, and memorise Portuguese.  
    In Unit 1 you will hear Portuguese decoded with each syllable spoken very slowly and clearly with repetition. Immediately before each sentence is spoken, you will hear the translation, so you will always understand what is being said. 
    Unit 2 focuses solely on increasing your listening ability, which will improve your abilities to engage in dialogue with a native Portuguese speaker. This chapter requires you to listen very carefully to nuances in the language. 
    By Unit 3 you will already notice progress in your abilities to speak and understand Portuguese. The spoken translation is followed by two repetitions in Portuguese at a completely natural speed. While you are learning to process naturally spoken Portuguese, Units 3 and 4 will help you memorise new vocabulary and full sentences. 
    In Unit 5 you can test yourself on how much you have learned. If you are having difficulties, we suggest you revisit the listening, speaking, or memorisation section of Units 1, 2 3 or 4, according to what you need more help with.
