Of course, Greenlandic is an extremely difficult language and making a manual on it requires a bit of effort, especially when it involves doing video lectures, but still.. It would be good if they placed online a summary of the course and its chapters for us to know what we are supposed to buy.

If you felt like downloading it yourself I'd say to just pay me a fourth of the cost to ease my own wallet from buying it, and I'd get on recording the rest of the videos really fast hahahah.
They never responded to my Email, unfortunately.

It's probably so expensive because the teacher is coming from the University (also the language board or something?). I did Email them when I bought the product asking if they were planning on making any more, or an online teaching thing like there is from a University for Icelandic, but they haven't answered me yet.
