Product Description
Product Description
Polish is the state language of the Polish Republic. It is a member of the western sub-group of the Slavonic languages, a family which includes Bulgarian, Russian, Ukranian and other languages. As well as nearly 40 million speakers in Poland itself, Polish is spoken by an estimated 10 million Poles abroad. This book is intended to help you progress quickly from the basics to understanding, speaking and writing Polish. Twenty thematic units increase in complexity, as they move from dealing with everyday situations to talking about the past and making plans. The emphasis is on communication throughout, with important language structures introduced through dialogues in each unit. These build up to give you a command of the essential phrases necessary for a trip to Poland. Exercises are included so that you can practice the language as it is introduced, and tips throughout should help with the grammar. Aspects of life in Poland are also detailed to give a context to the language.

You'll never finish the course,

This review is from: Complete Polish (Teach Yourself Languages) Accompanies Book (Audio CD)
Recent business travel to Russia, Japan, Greece and Poland has seen me buy quite a lot of this type of CD. I can say without a moment's hesitation that this is the worst I have encountered. The rinky tink music that breaks all (short) sections is enough to ensure that you will want to throw the course in the bin. Worse than that, it doesn't repeat words in the way that every other training guide does, to help you learn by repetition. It also tries to teach you obscure things (how to buy an amber brooch) near the beginning and before you have covered more important things such as Hello and Goodbye.

Far too complex,

This review is from: Complete Polish (Teach Yourself Languages) Accompanies Book (Audio CD)
This book is great for about the first two chapters and then gets unbelievable complex for all but the best language learners. For most people travelling for buisness/tourism this seems almost completely useless as you are certain to give up after not long! Other books particularly those written in Poland give a much more sound basis for learning the beautiful Polish language
