Book Review:
''Let's Learn Sinhala - 2: Vowels and Their Strokes'' by Professor J.B. Disanayaka is an excellent and accessible guide for anyone wishing to learn the Sinhala language. Written by a respected Professor Emeritus of the University of Colombo, this book is the second in a series designed to help learners master the fundamentals of Sinhala.

This volume focuses specifically on the vowels and their strokes, making it an ideal resource for beginners who are just starting to learn the Sinhala script. The book provides clear explanations and practical exercises, helping learners to not only produce new sounds and letters but also to begin thinking in a new way.

As the author writes: ''These patterns take you to a new world of thought, the world of thought of the Sinhalese. As you learn Sinhala, you begin not only to produce new sounds and new letters but also to think anew.''

This is a must-have for anyone serious about learning Sinhala, whether for travel, work, or cultural exploration. Highly recommended for its clarity, structure, and thoughtful approach to language learning.
