I wanted to learn enough German to translate Schubert Lieder and Mozart librettos. After reading the reviews here on Amazon, I bought this set, and am thoroughly glad I did. This is not a perfect product, but what you get for your $50+ is simply...

I was disappointed right away that not even the most basic colors are included. Found only blue and red...no green, yellow, purple. Look forward to using it as much as possible, but it needs some more expanding.

this is a textbook that was required for a class that I am taking. It serves the purpose for which it was intended. As a self learning book, it is not so great. The explanations are a bit over my head. Terminology used is for one more educated...

I ordered this book for the class I was taking. I like the spiral binding as it makes it easier to work with. However I don't think it is all that well-organized. It would be better if all the related signs were presented together. For example,...

This is a good refernce in paperback, but on Kindle you can't search to a specific verb and the small type on the pages is unreadable.

This book has been the best way for me to practice my Italian because the words are already conjugated. It helps with grammar too!

I am currently learning italian and I thought getting this kindle book would be an excellent tool. But you can't read the verb conjugations because they a tiny and gray. I am very dissapointed.

This is a great book. But the Kindle version is not so great. Many of the insets are too small to read, and even if you could expand them sufficiently, the ink transfer is not uniform. Sort of defeats the purpose of trying to learn. It's a shame...

This book is very useful. I am taking an intermediate conversational Spanish course in college, and I use this book for almost all of my homework. Besides the great verb conjugations, the lessons are very helpful and will help me learn Spanish,...

This is a very convenient guide to verb congugation in an easy to follow format. I have not found much use for the accompanying CD yet but in studying irregular verbs, it helps you rapidly see stem changes, etc. I am currently just beginning the...

I'll start with what you've already read: this book is so English. As an interpreter and involved member of the Deaf community, I can assure that this is no compliment. Don't get me wrong, I love English; it's my first language... but it is...

I own many sign language books/dictionaries. I have to say that this one gets a lot of shelf time. I do not like the format. Most dictionaries are alphabetical order. This dictionary is inconveniently grouped in sections.
Things that I...

This book is written at an _extremely_ rudimentary level; everything covered here can be learned much more easily and concisely, with a much less galling and obnoxious authorial voice, in any halfway-decent discussion of language. In my case, I...

As a graduate student of historical linguistics, I often find myself asked to explain aspects of contemporary language change or the reconstruction of proto-languages to interested friends or family. Unfortunately, I don't have much of a gift of...
