5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Resource, August 20, 2001
By Don Yancheson (Murphy, NC United States) - See all my reviews
I used this phrasebook while traveling in Slovakia this year. Since I know nothing of the language, the extensive list of phrases was very helpful. It's easy to use--find the general heading in the table of contents, locate the specific phrase, point to it and watch the smile of understanding appear on the face of the person you're trying to communicate with! The English-Slovak and Slovak-English dictionary in the back is also helpful in those unique situations where a phrase is not available. A few times I handed the Slovak-English dictionary to a person and they were able to communicate through it. Its small size is perfect for carrying in a back pocket or large shirt pocket. Highly recommend this book!

3.0 out of 5 stars Helpful little book, August 26, 2006
By CB (Richmond VA) - See all my reviews
Although this book barely qualifies as a dictionary, its collection of common phrases is very helpful. Its primary shortcoming is that it does not give pronunciation next to the phrase -- you have to figure that out from the pronunciation guide in the front of the book. I recommending having a full-fledged English-Slovak-English dictionary in addition to this book.
