The book is divided into section such as "emergency," "food," etc. Being someone who understands the language it's a nice refresher on how to speak when traveling. It does not have a pronouncination guide so someone who's still learning or has never spoken it may have trouble. It about the height/width of a paperback but thin. It can fit in a small purse, not so much in a "pocket."

This phrase book is awesome! I'm trying to learn tagalog so I use it all the time. My mother was really surprised when I started using some of the phrases of the book! It's really great and I would recommend it to anyone trying to learn tagalog.

I just adopted an older child from the philippines and this book was a great way for me to have some phrases to speak to him in his language. I really enjoyed it. Unfortunately, as soon as he saw it he confiscated it to use with his friends!!! Now I'll have to order another one.

The product arrived in better shape and ahead of time as anticipated.

It is not helpful to me only because my plans have changed.

It is exactly what would be needed for someone travelling to the Philippines, especially for the first time.

The only recommendation that I could make, would be in the area of pronunciation, as there are alot of Tagalog words that use letter combinations that are foreign to westerners (such as ng).
