Title: Serious Omissions - not for beginners
Review: What was the smiling author, Elisabeth Smith, thinking, when she wrote this book? It makes absolutely no sense at all, to publish a foreign language book that does not clearly show the correct pronunciations associated with the words.A beginner will have no clue as to how to correctly pronounce these words in french. And pronunciation is extremely important.....in ANY foreign language. This book (along with many others) are poorly written, rush-to-market paperbacks.The real "Teach Yourself" series are very well written and will always have a "ty" in the upper left corner of the cover. All the rest are a waste of time.I studied French in high school and college, so I'll use this book. But for the true beginner, buyer beware.
