A stylish, pocket-size phrasebook perfect for business travelers, backpackers, sightseers, and anyone who wants to keep their French close at hand
Penguin’s French phrasebook includes a wealth of useful words and expressions essential to travelers of all kinds, spelled out phonetically and arranged in sections to help you deal with specific situations and needs as they arise. After a primer on basic grammar and a quick pronunciation guide, you’ll find statements and questions like:
• Does the hotel have wi-fi? A l’hôtel, y a-t-il la WiFi? (a lo-tel ee-ya-teel la wee-fee)
• My luggage has not arrived. Mes bagages ne sont pas arrivés. (may ba-gazh ner son pa za-ree-vay)

• May I see the wine list, please? Pourrais-je voir la carte des vins, s’il vous plaît. (poo-rezh vwar la kart day van, seel-voo-ple)
• Does anyone here speak English? Est-ce que quelqu’un parle anglais ici? (es-ker kel-ken parl ahn-gle ee-see)
Some of the French phrases are marked with an asterisk, giving an indication of the kind of reply you might get to your questions, and of questions you may be asked in turn.
With an elegant cover and easy-to-read design that are the hallmarks of Penguin Books, this essential reference will have you feeling at home no matter where your travels take you.
