Lonely Planet German Phrasebook & Dictionary: Learn Essential Phrases & Vocabulary | 3,500 Word Two-Way Dictionary | Pull-Out Fast Phrases Card | Travel with Confidence

I was a bit unsure whether to get this when you can use google translate, but it means that you don't need to worry about wifi / data on phone overseas / network availability if out in the middle of nowhere. Fits in jeans pocket so doesn't take up much space. The print is quite small and contrast isn't always great so would love to have a kindle version where you could enlarge the print for those of us without perfect vision. The phrase in English is in bold so easy to spot. There are also sections on what to listen out for, for example at the doctors if they ask questions and good having questions about wheelchair access / some questions that those of us with a disability may need. My teenager said that, "is there wifi" should be one of the basic phrases - it is in there, just not on front cover. Great section on german grammar - its many years since I learnt German at school and there was enough in there to remind me the basics so I may have the courage to put together some sentences myself. So overall, a great little book, definitely worth getting if going to a German speaking place and you want to have a go at speaking German / understand more of menus etc

Handy pocket sized phrasebook, husband took it out and about with him. Would buy others without hesitation.

Bought for son, as going to Germany for a year, just has little phases and places to go, and a bit of information if needed when there.

Very precise good for beginners

Sehr nutzlich!

Very nice

Useful for most familiar situations. Not used a great deal, but confident it would be most useful if needing help or advise.

Not suitable for under 18 year olds - purchased for 13 year old grandson - on arrival I opened the book at the middle pages - sex phrases and drug use phrases. The food section is right at the back! Excellent service from Amazon of immediate refund. Thank you

Handy little book with different sections with things you encounter. Plus A-Z for easy access to different German words . Handy size to carry in bag or pocket

It is highly beneficial in daily life and also serves as excellent practice for improving German conversational skills.

I am not going to Germany, unless someone has other plans for me. Despite that, I am interested in learning German and have been since college—100 years ago. This book is a lot of fun. Of course it’s also incredibly useful if you’re actually traveling. I love to just open to a random page and get more familiar with certain colloquial phrases. The book has color coded categories related to: Basics, practical, social, safe travel, food, and an English to German dictionary, and a German to English dictionary. There is also a tear out card that gives you a succinct guide to the most basic words and phrases you’ll need if you do go to Germany.

I was nice to have when I traveled to Germany

Great for my Wife's overseas trip to Switzerland
