Product Description

Product Description
Urdu is the national language of Pakistan, one of the official languages of India, and it is spoken in the neighbouring regions of Afghanistan, Nepal, and Bangladesh. Urdu uses a modified version of the Arabic script, but it is presented here in the roman alphabet. The two-way dictionary and the practical, travel-oriented phrasebook pertain to everything from technology to Islamic culture. You will find an introduction to the language, useful tips for travel in Pakistan, and regional cultural information to help make your stay in the Urdu-speaking world a pleasant one.

4.0 out of 5 stars good if you know the basics, 20 Mar 2006
this is a good book but only if you have learnt the basic alphabet system and the way different letters make different sounds in different words.the phrases are good for travel but are not always spelt as they should sound resulting in some confusion my husband knows the language and i bought this just as a base to learn usefulphrase which it has taught me but only after reading some back to my husband did i realise certain words had es where it should be and a or as where there needed to be an i and so on good to start on but be prepared to struggle if you dont have help

3.0 out of 5 stars good dictionary if you are familiar with urdu pronounciations already, 9 Aug 2006
By A. Bux (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book is great, very helpful. It has everything you need to know to learn/revise urdu language. However, the way the book transliterates the urdu words into english letters, misleads the english persons pronounciation of urdu words.

This book is good if you know both urdu and enlgish languages fairly well, but want to extend your urdu vocabulary, correct minor grammar errors, i.e. if urdu is your second language.
