Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow, and did you know
Your stairway lies on the whispering wind.

To dig a staircase, go to [d]designations and select [j?] downward staircase. place 2 somewhere in the center of your level (where you expect the most traffic). Then, go BELOW the level by [Shift >] and designate an Up-down staircase ( I think...) and keep going down (not too much though! or some Fun stuff might come in...  :-X) and then let the miner(s) work. Then you can move some stuff, such as farm and food stockpile, and workshops, down.

Those are how I learned to play, and they set me in pretty good stead - they're very good. They're not for the newest version, so play through those then download the newest version.

Just thought I'd mention it, since no one else has yet.
There's a really useful wiki for the game, which will probably answer most questions about how something work.
