Very helpful in learning Runa Simi the real name for Quechua.

I learned quite a bit of the complex grammar and what Expansions mean.

I use the book often and I attend private tutoring for Quechua and intend to become fluent. I'm going to Machu pichu Ñoqa Gary Kani

What a nice language. I wish there would be some CDs for the pronunciation as well.
