Negative Positive
Title: pathetic- a total waste of money
Review: I saw a reference to this book online that said it would be offer some new slang words or words not found in other references. It doesn't.The first half of the book is in English only and meanders through topics of tourism, Buddhism, meeting in-laws, visas and work permits.The second half is a phrasebook for sex-tourists followed by a short chapter of instructions for filling out a profile for on-line dating.Mixed in with this are numerous English spelling errors, a confusing and inconsistent version of Thai phonetics with no reference to tones, a non-standard difficult to read Thai font, etc. etc. etc.I only submit reviews of products that are really good or really bad.This lame excuse for a book is a 'zero star' product.There are many much better phrasebooks that offer more at half the price. Lonely Planet being the most obvious one.
Is the review positive or negative?
