Title: Not the best choice
Product review: This phrasebook lacks basic information about China and overall is not the best one. Lonely Planet China book is fantastic and gives you a guide to travel with but forget this phrasebook. I found it to have many obscure phrases and not much actual Chinese. I recommend getting a phrasebook with the written Chinese characters because pinyin can sometimes be difficult for Chinese people to read and having the characters will definitely help when asking for directions, help, and ordering food. In my opinion get Barron's mandarin phrasebook by Wu and Hoss and don't waste your time on the Lonely Planet Phrasebook.
