Summary: One piece of the puzzle
Comment: I am trying to learn french in order to pass a CLEP test. I had 2 years of french in high school, but have forgotten most of it. I have tried to compile a comprehensive study regime in order to read, speak and hear the french language. Currently I have Learn in Your Car French, French in Action videos on the Internet, and this book. The Berlitz French book is an enjoyable route to learn how to read French and even word pronounciation. Each word has in this book book has a pronounciation guide underneath it. This feature is really great. As you are learning new vocabulary, you learn how to say it correctly.

Summary: simply wonderful!
Comment: This is great stuff! I developed better-than-decent proficiency at both French and German, starting from ground zero, working with these books for only a week or so. I would prefer a few more rules frankly stated as such: I found that I had to infer rules from what at first seemed like irregularities or surprises in a sample text. I don't know how the author(s) managed, but the odd assortment of dialogues is evidently sufficiently ingeniously chosen that one builds a strong practical vocabulary--certainly to make oneself clearly understood and to have educated foreigners truthfully tell you that they're most impressed with the extent of your command of language X. Warning: German will prove somewhat more difficult than French, as the conjugations are more detailed, the genders are more numerous (three versus two), and the declensions of adjectives and nouns will definitely present an onerous burden that one never fully gets used to. (BTW, the older printings were preferable--I'd rather have an honest green overcoat with the German or French text than have a black-and-white overcoat with an arrow pointing to it that says in English, "Um, er, pretend that this thing here is colored green.")

Summary: good 4 fun
Comment: I've bought this book recently and it suits me well,why?because I just wanted to learn french for fun,and not for some kind of exam of something,it helps u to get familiar with the language,and with hard work,be able to even speak it out!And...I might add it is very simple!
Customer Rating:
Summary: Great when combined with audio lessons or on its own.
Comment: I'm very pleased with this book. I've been listening to audio tapes but those only help me speak French. As an English speaking person, it is difficult for me to associate the spoken word with how it is written in French.
With this book, it is easy to read and understand the words and easy to sound out how it should be spoken. As I'm reading, I find words that I've learned how to say and can start recognizing how it is written. Also,I discovered that I don't always hear the tapes as clearly as I thought and I have been saying the word incorrectly.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Very nice for pronunciation and beginners
Comment: This is a very nice book for people who are completely new to the language and for people that do not have a good grasp of the pronunciation of the language. This book along with a good student English/French dictionary is a good place to start for a beginner.
