Make room for this one in your suitcase
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
I found this book very useful on a recent trip to Japan. I was in an area of Tokyo where there were almost no English-speakers, but I was able to get along just fine with the help of this book. It's small enough to fit in a pocket easily, but contains enough material that I don't think it ever left a need unmet.The format is very clear. All phrases are given in English, in transliterated Japanese, and in Japanese script; if you fail to make yourself understood by attempting the transliteration, you can just point to the Japanese script. There are also some nice sections in this book that I haven't seen in other phrase books, such as "10 things you can always say to start a conversation with a Japanese person."Being a language freak, I brought 3 books on the Japanese language to Tokyo with me, but this one turned out to be the only one I needed.
