Product Description

Product Description
Although it is aimed at those with no previous knowledge, this course is equally suitable for anyone wishing to brush up existing skills and aims to help users progress from the basics to understanding, speaking and writing Dutch with confidence. Key structures and vocabulary are introduced in 16 thematic units progressing from introducing yourself and dealing with everyday situations to using the telephone and giving opinions. The emphasis is on communication throughout with important language structures introduced through dialogues on the accompanying recording. There are plenty of exercises to practise the language as it is introduced and tips throughout to help with pronunciation and grammar. Cultural information sections give useful advice and information for anyone planning a trip to the Netherlands, including updated information taking into account developments such as the introduction of the euro and the Internet. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Resource, 19 Mar 2003
This book is up-to-date and very useful if you want to know casual Dutch. It starts off pretty simple with the basics and then progresses through various useful topics, such as talking about yourself, shopping, talking about jobs, talking about computers and even your mobile phone! This book teaches essential grammar along the way, as well as useful words and ways to make you sound more native. it even has some helpful hints about Dutch culture.
If you have read Teach Yourself Beginner's Dutch or the old version of this book and thought they were pretty poor, then this book IS better. It really is because I thought those others were not so good.

To some up the book: it's really useful for real-life situations and written in a relatively amusing and simple way.

5.0 out of 5 stars Spot on., 20 Sep 2007
By L. HALLS (North London, U.K.) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I'll keep this short as it need only be short. I wanted to learn Dutch from scratch. I had no experience with Germanic languages and so was at the mercy of this book to guide me, and it has done exactly that. It is an excellent book in all respects : the content is useful, practical and realistic, the grammar is introduced constantly at the right pace and with clear explanation, the vocabulary is extensive and not always confined to turgid and overdone topics as in other books (not always, I emphasise, there is always an element of this whatever book you choose) and finally the presentation is excellent.

6 months after I purchased this and worked through half of it, I went to the Netherlands and was shocked at how much of the book was actually useful in real life - that is the real bonus of this book. You will absolutely find it useful in reality, as well as catering for reading original texts such as the Diary of Anne Frank in its native Dutch (only after you've completed it all thoroughly for that, though!) It will get you to beyond GCSE at whatever pace you want. However, experienced with languages or not, this book is excellent. Buy it and for a few months of study you can enjoy the language and culture of the Low Countries forever!

3.0 out of 5 stars Can't get into it, 18 Mar 2009
By Mr. P. A. Mitchell "Mitch" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I don't know if its the style of the CD and book or the language itself but I simply can't grasp this - yet I am fine with other, similar languages.
