This is a thread for an attempt to get a group study for Taiwanese/Hokkien going. So far a few of us have expressed interest in learning some Taiwanese/Hokkien, but anyone else that wants to join in at any point is more than welcome!
The main idea of this thread is to post what we'll be working on during any given week, and to have a place to talk, ask questions, and get help among the members of the study group.
After some careful deliberation, I would like to go through the Spoken Amoy Hokkien (abbreviated: SAH) and Spoken Taiwanese (abbreviated: ST) textbooks by Bodman, if that's ok with everyone else. Feel free to speak up if you want to use another textbook, and we can discuss it.
I'm just suggesting this because so far everyone has said they don't care which textbook we start with, and because I've been staring at this textbook on my book shelve for a long time.

I am more than willing to use another textbook though!

Anyway, provided there are no objections to the textbook, I propose starting to go through the first dialogue in SAH. Say, sentences 1-20? Does that sound reasonable to everyone else?
