The Rough Guide Phrasebooks

The Rough Guides series of full-color dictionary phrasebooks are unrivaled, featuring over 5,000 words and phrases and free mp3 downloads of common travel dialogue scenarios. Each dictionary phrasebook includes an extensive two-way dictionary, a food and drink menu guide, and free audio downloads so you can perfect your pronunciation. Depending on the country and language, a copy generally finds its way into my backpack – a solid reliable source for my travel (certainly other publications exists as well). I also download a dozen or so key phrases and place them in my “Notes” on my iphone. –Jonathan
