Reviews


Has its merits, but doesn't explain enough
I had to use this book for French 101 in college. I don't recommend it, if you're not being forced to purchase it. The culture sections do contain a lot of helpful and interesting information about France and the other French-speaking countries, but the book has a nasty habit of not explicitly defining the vocab words it introduces. Many of the nouns come in the form of little drawings, with the French underneath. If the picture is unclear (which they tend to be), you'll have to check the French-English dictionary in the back. Most of the words they use are there, but not all of them. In those cases, grab a bigger dictionary or Google Translate. I got my book used, and the person who I bought it from wrote many of the translations next to the words, which helped me out a lot.

I understand that a foreign language textbook can use words that it doesn't explicitly define, but it shouldn't be doing it when introducing the basic chapter vocab words.

used French book
The book is in pretty good condition. There's some writing, but the notes are helpful. Unfortunately this book is missing the first disc, but has the second one. The book is in tact and has no ripped or missing pages :)

Good book
Good book, in good condition. A little overpriced because i expected the workbook to be included but oh well!

Good buy.
Reasonably priced, shipped on time. Needed it for a college class and it was good.

Great book for learning beginning French
I used this book for a college introductory course and it was much better than any that I had ever used in high school. I would recommend this to anyone wanting to learn french. The cd was also very helpful in helping me to learn how to pronounce.
