Title: Very helpful!
Review: My husband and I found the Italian version of this book to be very helpful, so we happily purchased this book prior to our recent trip. I love the organization and I appreciate the little bits of humor and cultural tips he throws in there. It doesn't include absolutely everything you will see on a menu, so a pocket dictionary to supplement is useful, but as a phrasebook this worked quite well. The biggest critique I have to that it is very formal German; my uncle said about a few of the phrases, "Nobody says it that way," but you can't expect a book like this to be too heavy on the slang, which is regional and shifts anyway. Buy this book and you will be better understood. Happy travelling!
