Easy Spanish Phrase Book: Over 770 Basic Phrases for Everyday Use (Dover Easy Phrase)

The Easy Spanish Phrase Book was helpful for learning key phrases to help one communicate with Spanish speaking persons. It was a bargain for what it was intended to do. It was not, however, a guide for general conversation or idententifing specific words and was limited to set phrases. For this purpose, it was set up well with categories listed in a simple format.

I know very little spanish and this book is a help in learning some phrases and asking some questions. It is very basic and helpful. Thank you!

Was very helpful in my classes to learn Spanish. Use it frequently as a reference.
Thanks

This book was certainly cheap and it is certainly easy to carry. But it was also almost entirely useless. I know only a little Spanish, but enough that this book was not useful to me, because I already knew how to say anything in it that was meaningful to our travels. My husband, on the contrary, knows almost no Spanish. When attempting to shop on his own, he discovered that this book will tell you how to buy gold cufflinks, scarves, gloves, and almost every item of apparel except shirts and pants. It contains a very strange collection of phrases and does not appear to have been updated since its first publication in the 50s. Not useful if you want to ask the location of an internet cafe.

Very small book that gives you such bare essentials that you really get nothing at all. If you have to go to Mexico tonight and this was the only book you had then maybe take it because its better than zilch.
