I got a copy in Ireland with a CD instead of the tapes. I've tried other Irish language books, but this one worked best for me. Very straightforward, and focused on getting you speaking Irish as quickly as possible. If you want to try your hand at Irish, this is a really good first choice.Slán leat!
The illustrations in this book are neat and the CD helps but there are virtually NO pronunciation guides and the dialogue in the CD is frighteningly fast. I could say "hello" and super basic stuff but even for the casual learner this books fails, in my opinion.
You get what you pay for...the price was right so I thought I'd give it to help a friend understand me when I rant a bit as I speak Gaeilge myself. This book gives you just a few stock phrases in a variety of situations, many of which would be rare to the individual making a first trip to the Gaeltacht. At best, it gives you a few polite one liners, but doesn't give you enough to engage in much of a conversation with anyone.
Excellent aid to learning Irish. The book is clear and amusing and easy to follow. The CDs are well thought out and easy to follow also. Once you have mastered this you are left with a sound basis to every day conversation. Many thanks
I have searched high and low for a WORKBOOK on the Irish language. I was under the impression that this was more of a workbook, and was disappointed when it arrived to see that it wasn't. This would have been OK had the CD been of any use. It went so fast that I was a few pages behind by the time I realized what was going on. Also, there are no pronunciation guides, and HELLO have you seen the Irish language?? It's made up of letters that make sounds OTHER than what that letter represents, and there are often several silent letters littered about.This is more of a second or third level Irish instruction book.
