The present textbook is a graded introduction that covers the grammar and writing system of Old Babylonian Akkadian in 38 lessons. It is primarily intended to be used under the supervision of an instructor in a college class, but it is also meant to be sufficiently clear, thorough, and self-contained to be used profitably by an individual in independent study. The 38 lessons require the better part of a full academic year to cover adequately, but at the end of the lessons the student will be familiar with all the main and most of the minor points of Old Babylonian grammar and script, will already have read quite a few texts, and will be ready to move on to additional Old Babylonian texts and to begin the study of Standard Babylonian texts (with the aid of Appendix D).
