''A Beginner's Guide to Taiwanese'' covers:
Li hø! [[Taigie|Taiwanese]] is a beautiful and musical language spoken in Taiwan and amongst Taiwanese people around the world. This '''''Beginner's Guide to Taiwanese''''' will provide you with a brief introduction to the spoken language as well as a writing system called [[Modern Taiwanese Language]] (MTL).
*phonetics/phonology, from [[consonant]]s to [[Tones of Taiwanese|tones]]
 
*[[tone sandhi]]
Most speakers of Taiwanese are not aware that there are established ways to phonetically write down the language. While there is not a single widely adopted system for the written form of the language (not even in [[Harnji]]), MTL is a very useful tool for learning Taiwanese. There are several other systems in use in Taiwan, such as [[Pe̍h-ōe-jī]] (POJ), Daighi tongiong pingim, and [[Taiwanese Romanization System]]. Unfortunately most Taiwanese speakers will not be able to read any of these phonetic systems but they will understand it when you read it.
