Great French Guide,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: French (Eyewitness Travel Guide Phrase Books) (Paperback)
I don't know anything about French, I bought this book to help me when visiting France, It's really good pocket book, it has categories such as Every Day Phrases, Villas and Apartments, Traveling Around, Driving, Eating, Menu Guide, Stores, Sport, Health, and many more categories.
It shows the phrase and words in English, French, and then the pronunciation of the French words in English letters. Also it has general info about each category in France. I speak English, Arabic and Spanish, and I find the French language very hard for me to understand and speak. I think this is a really great pocket book for traveler to France.

Handy, Stowable, Travel Companion,
By
This review is from: French (Eyewitness Travel Guide Phrase Books) (Paperback)
I picked-up this Guide on impulse at an airport on my way to the French speaking St.Martin (Caribbean, French West Indies). A self-standing kiosk that attractively markets other titles in the series easily caught my attention. Based on this experience, I will consider other titles the next time I see the collection. The small size of this Guide makes it easy to carry in just about any pocket. That's a big deal. Learning a language requires persistence and quick access to a collection of key words and phrases at random moments. I won't claim this is the best of many competing phrase books on the market, but I'm also sure you cannot go wrong spending some time with this Guide if you see it in your travels.

Must get CD,

This review is from: French (Eyewitness Travel Guide Phrase Books) (Paperback)
I bought this book as one of the two textbooks for a beginner's French class. I had never studied French before and wanted to get at least the basics in preparation for a planned trip to Paris. I have been using this book as part of the class for about 6 weeks. This book is designed to give the traveler the basics in vocabulary and key phrases. I think the book does a good job at that. But after 6 weeks of classes, I would have to say that French pronunciation is definitely not obvious and intuitive. So as I said in the title, you MUST get the CD along with the book to make this book worthwhile.
