Format:Audio CD
Although I had to wait a while to obtain this product, I've found this audiobook an excellent means of getting started with Afrikaans. The friendly narration makes it clear and easy to work along to in the accompanying book. With the focus on learning the sounds of the language rather than wrestling with complex grammar, I've quickly learnt to understand and contribute to conversations. If you want to get a foot in the door with learning this language, this product is ideal.

I bought this product hoping I'd be able to use the CD in the car on the way to/from work to supplement using the book, but they are designed to be used in conjunction with each other so it hasn't really worked for me - but they might work for others who plan to use them together. The book frustratingly doesn't give a translation of everything - some things you have to deduce yourself, which might help you remember it but is also open to error if you deduce the wrong thing!

Format:Paperback
I have used TY products on three different occassions and each time they have been outstanding so it won't be surprising that I was once again impressed with this one. I would recommend getting the whole pack as the CDs are very helpfull with the pronounciation and I found having the complimenting audio bought the book to life. Ofcause nothing is as good as having real live biltong vreters to verbally attack while one is first learning but this is the next best thing.

Dit boek is mooi!
This is a very reader-friendly book which goes through the vocabulary and grammar so that one does steadily get familiar and at ease with afrikaans. Read more
