 French: Lonely Planet Phrasebook May 19, 2007
The book is very useful for traveling...as expected from a lonely planet speech book. However, it would be better with an audioguide to pronounce it correctly.
 Useful in all situations December 6, 2006

I got this book as a gift before going to Paris for a month and after taking one quarter of French at school. This book is so useful in very many situations! With my basic skills in pronunciation and grammar, this book carried me through at restaurants, metro stations, going out, etc. The two-way dictionary is also great because I had French people look up words they didn't know in English. There's also a funny romance section that I don't know if you would ever use, but it's a great read and my French friends love it as well. Overall I would recommend this phrasebook if you're going to France for a short trip and as long as you learn some basic pronunciation you should be fine!
Excellent Book to get around!!!!! March 9, 2006

I was in Paris and with the phonetic pronunciation of phases the Parisians would understand us completely. I was so surprised!!! This book was very helpful and I would recommend it to anybody who needs to get around in France. I just bought the Italian version for my next trip!!!!

Right now i am currently studying French independently before i begin a French I class in school. And so far, I find this book to be very useful in using common phrases, as well as having facts about the grammar. And what's great is how this book tells the pronunciation of all the words in its dictionary, and for some reason that is something that many dictionaries lack, considering that the French language has the most difficulty in pronunciation! I wish French dictionaries were that convient. All in all, if you want to learn French phrases, or trying to have a little bit of knowledge about the French language before being taught, or you are already a French speaker and just want to brush up, this book is excellent! Highly recommended.
