Essential Phrasebook

I love this book. It's taken me from Ireland to France, Belgium, England, Wales, the Neathelands and countries in-between. It's tiny and is filled with helpful phrases in an easy-to-read format. Also, it's very durable. I love all Lonely Planet books! Helpful tip: I always cover my phrasebooks with a plain cover to avoid standing out as a tourist.

Excellent Quick Reference

An excellent quick reference for all your travel language necessities in Europe. And it's a handy little size too.

Even covers Welsh!

If you plan to travel all over Europe, this book may get you through and save the time and trouble of carrying a different phrasebook for each country. It is small, just slightly larger than the average palm and full of basic phrases. It doesn't cover every language but DOES include Basque, Catalan, Welsh, Spanish, Turkish, Italian, Dutch, French, German and a wealth of others. WHat I especially liked: 1. The tips on how to break the ice in each country and join in conversations 2.Menu decoders and suggestions for each country 3.Essential words to get you through transportation checkpoints and on your way 4. Some of the basic sports and festivals in each country. 5. Written FOR the traveler with a strong emphasis on the most essential situations when a phrasebook might be needed.

compact comprehensivephrasebook with pronunciation

This book has several advantages over other phrasebooks:* Its got most of Europe (except Eastern) covered, including Irish!* It is small - about the size of two decks of cards.* It has the english phrase, the phrase in the translated language and then in blue how you actually pronounce the phrase. The pronunciations are spot on - the best thing about this book.* It has phrases on absolutely everything - I even got to use my Greek phrase for "I would not like it extracted please" when I spoke to a greek student at the Oktoberfest who was studying dentistry. Everything's covered: getting on buses, going to the laundromat, getting directions, etc. About 20 pages on each language with everything that you will need to get by for a while.* It's cheap and all in one book.* A must have for anybody going to Europe who doesn't speak all their languages - I think that's everyone.

Very Useful but Missed out on Eastern Europe

This book is a useful guidebook to many languages of Europe, however some of the omissions are a bit strange; It includes Catalan and Basque but not Eastern European, or Scandinavian languages. It's convenience lies in being able to look up the same phrases for different languages.I suspect it covers a lot of material from other Lonely Planet Phrasebooks, such as the Spanish one, just not as comprehensively.
