3 out of 5 stars good dictionary if you are familiar with urdu pronounciations already   August 9, 2006
 2 out of 2 found this review helpful

This book is great, very helpful. It has everything you need to know to learn/revise urdu language. However, the way the book transliterates the urdu words into english letters, misleads the english persons pronounciation of urdu words.

This book is good if you know both urdu and enlgish languages fairly well, but want to extend your urdu vocabulary, correct minor grammar errors, i.e. if urdu is your second language.



4 out of 5 stars good if you know the basics   March 21, 2006
 3 out of 3 found this review helpful

this is a good book but only if you have learnt the basic alphabet system and the way different letters make different sounds in different words.the phrases are good for travel but are not always spelt as they should sound resulting in some confusion my husband knows the language and i bought this just as a base to learn usefulphrase which it has taught me but only after reading some back to my husband did i realise certain words had es where it should be and a or as where there needed to be an i and so on good to start on but be prepared to struggle if you dont have help
