4.0 out of 5 stars Nice for learning vocabulary, May 27, 2004

Nice picture dictionary arranged in themes. Meant for Creole speakers learning English, but very helpful for people like me who speak English and are learning Creole. Would be even nicer if the exercises at the bottom of the pages also had the Creole translation as the rest of the items do.

Si ou vle pale kreyol, ou bezwen achte liv sa a. This is a great dictionary for those wanting to know the Haitian Creole translation to English words. I had this dictionary before and ended up giving it to a good Haitian friend trying to learn English and missed it so bad I bought myself another.
