Summary: Southern Hokkien (Minnanhua, Taiwanese), one of the southern Chinese regional languages, is rarely taught in Chinese programmes at European or American universities. This paper sheds light on the design and pedagogical aims of a new comprehensive introduction to Southern Hokkien, and deals with aspects of Southern Hokkien that are found beneficial for an efficient acquisition of this language outside its natural linguistic environment.
