Customer Reviews

Great starter

Just like other Dummies books I have seen this is loaded with a lot of good information. I think this book is a great starter/supplement to learning Italian.

As good as any extensive language book

When I travelled to France I bought a copy of "French for Dummies". After six months of studying I could say "I would like a bottle of water", or , "Where does this bus go?" After a week of Italian Phrases for Dummies I could do the same thing in Italian. If your planning a trip to Italy and don't want to waste a lot of time waiding through some text book learning things your going to foget two days after you return home, this book is definatly for you.
