German Phrases for Dummies
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 14 years ago
I bought this to go along with my German language textbooks. I thought it would help in learning another language. It would be excellent for anyone to use if they are travelling in Germany. It covers all the important things to say and ask for.
Perfect for my weekend in Berlin!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
There have been times when my German wasn't bad, but the latest time was at least ten years ago! So when we planned a weekend in Berlin, I wanted something that would give me a quick refresher without going into all the complicated grammar. This book was perfect! I kept it in my purse (and it's not a big one!) for the week before our trip and reviewed whenever I had a few minutes. By the time we arrived in Berlin, I could order a local beer (most important of all, right?!), ask how much something costs, ask where the nearest ATM is...and even understand the answers! The pronunciation guide is really pretty good, so you don't have to have a recording to figure out the sounds. There is also a small grammar section in the beginning which does help for formulating questions and saying things in past tense, etc. English definitions are given in the text, but there is no separate glossary. If you have never had any German, it would take more than a week with this book to be able to get around like I did, but it is excellent to jog old memories. I am very happy with this purchase.

Great book for assisting with pronunciation in the classroom. The dummies approach to pronunciation should be created as a "standard" in language study.

I am teaching German on a volunteer basis and my students seem to be happy to use this book as a guide line.
