I really wish I had got to the end of the page and read the previous review as I would have avoided myself the hassle of returning the item in question. The description makes it sound as a stand alone item, something you can listen to while you are driving, which is what I wanted, but this is totally wrong. The CD starts by asking you to refer to the book and so it goes on. So it's totally useless as a stand alone product.

Welcome to Welsh CDWelcome to Welsh: A Complete Welsh Course for Beginners
This C.D / Book combination suggests learning will be easy, either by listening in the car or using the book.
However, dont be fooled, you will definately need the book, as learning basic welsh from this C.D is impossible as there is no English Dialogue whatsoever to compare the welsh to, no basic phrases? how do you say hello? , and it simply gives a page number and begins to speak in fluent welsh, at full speed.
If you already speak welsh and want to improve accent or pronounciation, then this may be suitable.
The Audio is clearly just a cassette converted to C.D and the book looks like it was printed in the mid 70s.
Go for something that actually does cater for the begginner rather than this.
Welsh is a beautiful but tricky language, made only more so by this C.D / Book combination

My husband bought the Welcome to Welsh book for Christmas for me; however as I think it is always better to hear the words for pronunciation, I purchased this CD to go with it. Unfortunately the couple who recorded the cd have not left any pauses between the words and phrases - giving no opportunity for you to repeat and digest!! It does say that you will benefit from the book - quite frankly without the book the cd would be a complete waste of time. I had rather hoped to have this cd in the car to learn as I travelled. Unfortunately, as you need to hit the pause button every few seconds, this was not an option. I am really keen to learn Welsh as my daugther and her husband live in Wales and our 11 month old Grandson is learning both welsh and english words. Diolch yn fawr
