The material of the Basic Course is arranged in groups of five units with a common theme. The first four units of each sequence are based on Dialogues, usually in the Phnom Penh dialect, and the fifth is based on a Narration, in Standard Cambodian, which reviews the immediately preceding subject matter. The text for Units 1-20 is entirely in standard style. From Unit 21 on, most of the text is given in Phnom Penh dialect (except for the Narrations), but a parallel Standard version of each Dialogue is provided in the Dialogue for Comprehension. Vocabulary lists include both forms wherever there is a difference.
