3.0 out of 5 stars Hmmm - it's a tricky language! 5 Sep 2009
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
This book is a handy size for the pocket or handbag. However, I can't help thinking that you really do need someone to help you learn the pronunciations. This is a very tricky language! Personally, I gave up as (thank heavens!)most of the population of Sri Lanka can speak English and they seem to be very keen to practice it!

3.0 out of 5 stars Not too bad... 22 Aug 2010
Format:Paperback
I bought this book for my boyfriend to learn Sinhalese, before going on our trip to meet the rest of my family.
The book is well written an all, but I find that the Sinhalese reported is sometimes too formal.... it is not colloquial Sinhalese, not a way in which to converse on a day to day basis.
I think it would be better to provide a product that defines the difference between what is been used on a daily routine and what to use on a formal occasion.

5.0 out of 5 stars everything youneed in a phrase book 5 May 2009
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Bought this in view of my upcoming holiday to Sri Lanka (so excited!!!).
Have tried various phrase books over the years, but always find that Lonely planet are well written, include everything you need and are pretty reasonable price wise. Also includes little facts about the culture and traditions- sure it'll be of great use.
