A few weeks ago, I have received this new book in my mailbox.



The book is quite thick. This is the exact same equivalent to what we can download from Xelloss's signature (or from the French section). This book is the sum of the Na'viri lì'fya and the dictionaries, translated and maintained in French by Xelloss.

Big thanks and kudos to him for his huge work. this will help me catching up little by little, as I don't have enough time to follow regular lessons (and now I can read such guides on paper, what a comfort!). :)

I really need to get a copy of that. I can practice my French and my Na'vi at the same time! :D

Xelloss printed, finished, polished and sent me this copy as a gift. I do not know how this can be done for you guys eventually, as sending to other states can be a tad expensive. I can eventually ask him the question, when we will fully be recovered (he is currently sick).

A similar book can be done in English, if only someone would develop the "Na'vi for dummies part". Xelloss book is the fusion of this, plus the "Learn Na'vi the easy way" activity book, translated in French, plus the dictionaries and two flash cards at the end.

So would I. And I would enjoy every minute of doing it. But, too many projects...not enough time!

Yeah, i can send the book if it's not too expensive  ;)

I would absolutely purchase a book like this. Perhaps even two, one for the comp desk or night stand and one for the car to take to and from work on breaks and what have you.

If you really want to buy his book, I suggest you send a private message to Xelloss directly to see how he can send you one copy, and eventually charge you depending on your location. I have talked to him a while ago about this, looking at the people's answers here and he might not be against sending copies outside France. Be aware he is quite busy though, like all of us.  :)

......very nice try. :D

The book's sentences are pretty simple even in the grammatical part, at worst you will understand by context. This is certainly help you improve your 'Français'. You already have the basics, you only need to read it to integrate it easily.  ;)
