Beginners Welsh by Heini Gruffudd,
By A Customer
This review is from: Beginners Welsh (Beginner's) (Paperback)
Provides a good overview of Welsh including grammatical guides and a brief history of the area. Language courses are very practical and efficiently done... unlike some other language books, you don't have to wade through silly, extraneous dialogues about non-native students learning the language. The dialogues get right to the salient linguistic points. Excellent!

This review is from: Beginner's Welsh: With 2 Audio Cds (Hippocrene Beginner's) (Paperback)
Just in receipt--without CDs or a classroom experience, Welsh should not be attempted. It will take this summer's efforts for sure.
