5.0 out of 5 stars so much useful information in such a small book, 11 Nov 2003

Em (London) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Egyptian Arabic (Lonely Planet Phrasebook) (Paperback)

This is the BEST Egyptian Arabic phrasebook you can buy. This little book is crammed full of useful words, phrases, grammar and a very useful two-way dictionary. I have The Rough Guide's Egyptian Arabic Phrasebook as well and THIS ONE is far better by miles. This book is ideal for beginners as well as intermediate learners of Egyptian Arabic. This book is a must and at such a small price is DEFINITELY WORTH THE MONEY!

5.0 out of 5 stars best of its kind, 28 Sep 2006

Magda "magda" (England) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Egyptian Arabic (Lonely Planet Phrasebook) (Paperback)

This is an excellent little book. Don't be misled by its diminuitive size it is a 'Tardis' of information, words and phrases. Instantly usable by beginners and the more experienced foreigner to Arabic alike. Very good value for money.

5.0 out of 5 stars Really Useful! Your great friend in Egypt, 26 Oct 2010

Alberto - See all my reviews

This review is from: Egyptian Arabic (Lonely Planet Phrasebook) (Paperback)

People always like listening to some sentences talked in their language by tourist.
It shows really interest in the culture of the country being visited.

If you want to impress egyptians, you just need to ask them your questions in egyptian :)

This book is really useful! You have a lot of sentences separated in some topics accompanied by their phonetical sound and the arabic written form. All of them are written in colloquial egyptian, used in the street and near to all people.

In the same little book, you have a two-way dictionary and explanations of the use of egyptian.

Really RECOMMENDABLE in your trip to Egypt!
