2.0 out of 5 stars
Not easy to use, difficult to navigate between book and cas',
By lesross@lineone.net (London) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Teach Yourself Panjabi [Book and Cassette] (Audio Cassette)
The combination of book and cassette does not work in this case. It is very difficult to match your place in the book, and the cassette. The book in the first chapter tries to explain too much and does build step by step, but just throws the information at you at fast rate. I was disappointed with the cassette, I was hoping to use it in the car. The cassette can not be used with out the book, and does not lend itself for learning conversation. An example of this is when you are introduced to the numbers up to 20, you are told the numbers once, there isn't a pause after the numbers so you do not have time to repeat them. Then you are straight on to another subject. All 20 numbers are said in about 20 seconds.

not that easy,
This review is from: Panjabi (Teach Yourself) (Paperback)
The book is certainly comprehensive, and perhaps that is the problem - it was too much with the tapes not being linked very well with the text, and far too much emphasis on written panjabi, with later lessons being written in the panjabi script; and for someone just wishing to get a basic grasp of the language is far too complicated.

Not very good,
By jana hanson (London, UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Teach Yourself Panjabi (Teach Yourself Languages) (Paperback)
It looks like this course was initially written by someone who knows the language and then reworked by someone who does not. It is not consistent, there are overlaps, and contradictions. It is very difficult to follow and has left me with too many unanswered questions. I am now using another book, actually two other courses. I would not recommend this course to anyone.
