French Language Card | Lightweight Credit Card-Sized French Phrasebook Alternative | Essential Words And Phrases For Holidays And Travel To France, Paris

Really useful for children learning Greek too as the general terms are written in English!

I purchased this for our weekend away in Paris for myself and my 11 year old son to use. It is a really useful size, is strong and won't bend or tear whilst in use or in a wallet or purse. I thought there would just be words on it but it is usefully laid out so that you can create sentences to get you through the day if you're brave enough to try! Wordings include getting around, being polite, ordering drinks and food and getting directions etc. My son is looking forward to trying it out! Will be on hand in my purse for those times of need while away! Would recommend purchases.UPDATE 7/7 - thought I would give an update following our trip and how useful the card was. My son, mother and I all referred to it and within 5 minutes of arriving off the Eurostar, I used it to put a sentence together to buy three train tickets to our destination - and we got what we needed and ended up in the right place! Result! We also used it in restaurants to order drinks etc. I received a free card too for Spain after I gave feedback and looking forward to trying that out too. Lots better than a big phrase book where you don't use half the words or sentences and light and easy to use. Would still recommend. :)

great for holidays.

I would have given this item 3 stars (or lower), but given the price it would have been churlish to do so. Some people might find it handy to keep in a top pocket for reference, but the words and phrases are so basic that I cannot see it being very useful as it gives no real indication of pronounciation and even if the person you are trying to converse with can understand what you are asking or trying to say, how would you be able to understand their reply? That said, for the cost of just over £1 and the size being able to fit in a shirt top pocket, I guess it is better than having nothing to help make enquiries in a foreign language.

As someone who never had a phrasebook on me when I really needed it, this is a great way of having a selection of useful words and phrases in your wallet or bag.However, as the format is so compact it can only cover a limited range of phrases, so you may find that a particular one you need isn't listed, "Good Night" for instance. Even so, the selection provided does cover most of the essentials.Also, although the Greek and Turkish translations are shown phonetically, the other languages are spelt conventionally, so if you have never learned any French, for example, you may have trouble with the pronunciation. Perhaps OOOZU could extend their range with phonetic versions of these cards.Even with these reservations, I think these cards will be very useful for many travellers. I shall be packing the Greek card for my holiday this year.

This is a neat card designed to go in to a wallet, purse or pocket. It contains a multitude of phrases designed to help you out in nearly any circumstances. Overall, a very good investment if you are not completely familiar with Italian but need to communicate! My daughter recently visited Italy and found it extremely useful. It's also good to keep with you to be able to practise the various words and put together some basic phrases during any convenient time of day, best of no problems with network connectivity, just keep the card safe! The card is also 'sealed' so that accidental contact with water, beer, wine etc. won't damage it. Excellent basic help for foreign travels.

Would fit in purse handy card

Although many people will speak English and there is a lot of crossover (excuse me is pardon) I found this handy and will be looking to get the rest at some point. That it appears to be phonetically spelling it out makes it a lot easier to identify things, the 1-10 & days of the week are useful plus I didn't realise when I bought it but it is printed on both sidesUPDATEI used these in April of this year and it really was handy, within a day of bring abroad id already used a card to speak to people, just ordered the rest of the set, a replacement French (as someone I borrowed it to found it so useful I told them to keep it :D ) & a Dutch card 👍
