Questions About Our Books
Which book should I start with?
If you're new to Haitian Creole, start with Kreyo Lingo A1 Β· Volume 1, then continue with Volumes 2 and 3. If you can already introduce yourself and hold a simple conversation, A2 is for you. B1, B2 and C1 take you from intermediate to advanced. For children, start with Book 1 of Kreyo Lingo A1 for Kids.
Why is each level split into volumes?
One complete level is about 700 pages: heavy to carry, expensive to start and hard to finish. Three volumes of about 230 pages each are easier to study with, cost less to begin, and let you feel real progress every time you finish one. For kids, short books of about 64 pages keep learning fun and quick.
Do I need to buy all 3 volumes?
No. Each volume works on its own and ends with a review. But the volumes follow each other, so to complete A1 you'll want all three. The Complete A1 Set will save you money.
How do I receive the PDF?
Right after payment you'll receive an email with your download link. You can read the PDF on any phone, tablet or computer.
How long does shipping take for the paperback?
Each paperback is printed just for you in about 3β5 business days, then shipped. Delivery time and shipping cost depend on your country, and you'll see both at checkout before you pay.
Why is the paperback a little more expensive?
Every copy is printed on demand, just for you, on quality paper. The Paperback + PDF option gives you both for only $8 more than the paperback alone.
How does the QR audio work?
Each lesson has a QR code. Scan it with your phone camera, log in with the student account you used to buy the book, and that lesson's audio opens in the Kreyo Lingo Audio Library. In the PDF you can also simply tap the code.
Do I need an account?
