Wonderful Introduction to Latvian language basics
29 Dec 2004
Format:Paperback
This user-friendly book is a great introduction to Latvian. I am currently learning the language as a beginner and found this to be the most useful in teaching the basics of the language. There is grammatical notes, but the emphasis is on teaching the basics of pronounciation and phrases. Very practical and easy to use. Highly recommended!

Helpful to get acquainted with useful language
8 Oct 2005
Format:Paperback
I am interested in everyday language, especially in greetings, introductions and brief phrases that hint at your goodwill intentions. These useful aspects and more are dealt with in this book. After an introduction on phonetics, when needed the author continues to give advice on the correct stress of words the whole book long.

too simple
20 Aug 2011
Format:Paperback
If you don't know ANYTHING in Latvian, book is for you. If you know something already a bit, don't waste your money.
For example, in page 109 (phrases page) are 30 words!!! 15 Latvian and 15 English (9 sentences).
You can take this book if you are going to visit Latvia for 1st time, and would like to learn "Hello, how are you?" in Latvian.
If you speak English, then you want to know words in Latvian. So, for example, with letter "d" there are like 115 words in English only..
This book should be called "Your first 10 sentences in Latvian", "...book for tourists". Not dictionary...
