THIS IS A GREAT LITTLE BOOK, IT DOESN'T COME WITH PICTURES AS WITH THE OTHER BERLITZ PHRASE BOOKS, DON'T KNOW WHY!, THE COUNTRY IS BEAUTIFUL, NICE PEOPLE, THE LANGUAGE IS BEAUTIFUL ALONG WITH ITALIAN IS THE CLOSEST TO LATIN, IT'S A BEAUTIFUL LANGUAGE, DON'T KNOW WHY LONELY PLANET,RICK STEVES AND OTHERS DON'T PUBLISH ROMANIAN PHRASE BOOKS, HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT!

We just returned from the beautiful Romanian countryside and this little book it great to carry! Our other travel guides cannot spend the printed space to instruct a visiter better on the language. And it's small and easy to keep with you.

Well I actually dont own this book as I decided not to purchase it since the "Look Inside" displayed typos in the "greetings" section. In their translation piece they showed "ā" as sounding like "uh" but when pronouncing "bunā" they said it was pronounced "booner" (as if pronouncing bunä), rather than "boonah" like it should say. Because of this huge typo just in the screening of this book, I am afraid there will be more typos, and thus will not be purchasing it. It is actually a shame as I liked the format of the sections and would have preferred this format over other books. If they get their typos fixed I would definitely buy this book.
