    This is difficult to use & almost impossible to understand, let alone remember what's been "taught".

    Unlike the majority of language tutors, the words and phrases are not repeated here, nor is there much pausing for the student to practise what's been heard.

    If you're new to Polish, in my opinion, it's virtually impossible to understand the words/phrases which are spoken at a conversational pace, just the once & not broken down into syllables (the latter which can be annoying I know, but is undoubtedly useful when learning the basic sounds of a new language).

    Would not recommend for these reasons.

    Disappointed 27 May 2002
    By Denis Higgins - Published on Amazon.com
    Format:Audio CD
    The CD contains all the information that is stated on the cover. But the structure of the content is difficult to use. Things are repeated but not directly after they have been said and there are no pauses to allow you to reapeat the words or phrases e.g.

    One, two, three, four

    One, two, three, four

    Rather than

    One, pause, one, pause
    Two, pause, two, pause

    Although it is not ideal I have used the CD and I am now able to mumble a few words of Polish. So the produces of the CD could argue that it did what it was designed to do.

    Polish is more complex 10 July 2008
    By George, M.A. - Published on Amazon.com
    Format:Audio CD
    This is a very basic course to say a few phrases in Polish to show an attempt to speak a highly inflexed language (nouns are declined verbs are conjugated). They change a lot. The course does not clarify, if I am using the familiar form of a phrase or the formal form of a phrase. Europeans do take the "familiar form" offensive until they give you permission to use this form. Also there are both a male and a female form for the past tense which the Booklet does not explain this usuage by putting (m) or(f)after the phrase. I have used other editions of In-Flight languages, they need to arrange words and phrases at the beginning to be shorter and native speakers to be slower.
    Amazing deal for the price! 28 Feb 2011

    This is EXACTLY what I was looking for: a pocket-sized mini dictionary with all the key and common phrases + a pronunciation guide. I'm not interested in really learning Polish, but I wanted to make my way around when I go there this summer. So easy to use, excellent, relevant phrases and best of all, a great price! I highly recommend this product if you're looking for basic phrases to use in Poland.
