Transcription: Conversation about establishing a literacy school

This is a conversation between Rawang speakers discussing establishing a school for teaching Rawang in their area. The classes happen on Sundays or in the evenings. They worry that students feel discouraged when they don't know parts of their language, especially older learners, so they would like to start classes when students are younger. They make a plan to train more teachers and create more books.
