Title: Useless unless you can read the Gujarati alphabet
Review: The book is pretty much useless unless you can already read the Gujarati alphabet (or want to learn it).I just wanted to learn how to speak a bit of the language, understand what people in my family are saying and learn how to say something vaguely understandable back.I didn't stand a chance with this book given all it does is show you a word or phrase in English and it's equivalent in the Gujarati alphabet - leaving me unable to even begin to know how to say it, let alone know if I was pronouncing it correctly. Needless to say I'm about as fluent in Gujarati now as I was before I bought the book...
