5.0 out of 5 stars Straightforward, Useful, No Gimmicks - Great Value
Reviewed in the United States on April 21, 2006

I've been listening to a number of French language audio CDs over the past year. It is a crowded field. I'm not complaining, because they are all good in different ways, but this is my current favorite. I have been listening to these two short CDs for weeks at 5-10 minute intervals driving my car. The 700 phrases are spoken in English and then repeated in French. The voices (male and female) that repeat the English phrases in French are very clear. The simplicity of the presentation will likely catch you off guard if you are used to listening to cutesy music or sound effect gimmicks in other language packages. This straightforward presentation is precisely why the material is easy to listen to again and again. It is what it is: Useful English phrases and their French equivalency. There is the obligatory booklet, but it repeats all the words and phrases exactly as they are heard on the two discs. So it is very easy to check what you have heard later on (as I need to). The packaging is slim and easy to slip into my jacket side pocket. When I have mastered these phrases I won't be reading Camus or Proust, but I will be appreciative. Maybe the producers should consider a sequel.

3.0 out of 5 stars tres comique!

I needed some brush-up on French. Actually, my French never really progressed to the stage where it would ever need a brush-up - more like a jump start. Anyway, I needed French lesson CDs. These were inexpensive and I've learned there isn't a lot of point in spending big bucks on language CDs.

After numerous trips to Europe, I know this much: CDs will not make you a brilliant conversationalist in French or any other language. They can help you get around, check into a hotel, read street signs, order dinner, and so on, and that is actually all I need. I know now that I will never be required to say, "What a charming child!" to anyone, or ask where the discotheque is, or demand that the valet come to my room.

These CDs give you the English phrase, followed by the French phrase, then a space where you can repeat it. The English phrase is spoken with more feeling than you might expect, from a man I imagine to be an out-of-work actor who specializes in distinguished sorts of roles. He puts a lot of feeling into "I have lost my friends" and "I am seasick." Then there are two French speakers. One is an older man who probably wears a beret and smokes cigarettes and is lasciviously inclined toward young girls. He is agreeable and never self-conscious, delivering lines like "How do you say 'pencil' in French?" without a trace of embarrassment. The other speaker is a woman. She is severe and has no patience. I picture her in a black dress and sensible shoes. "Here is my baggage - five pieces," she tells the customs agent, "Must I open all of them?"

While these are all conversations I am extremely unlikely to have, the CDs do help familiarize you with vocabulary and how to ask for things. They're not going to make me into a wit who is in demand at French cocktail parties, unless they need someone to ask how to say pencil in French.

1.0 out of 5 stars How do you say crap in French
Reviewed in the United States on September 19, 2012

This CD is awful! The English speaking man sounds like a game show host from the 1960's and the French guy over enunciates EVERYTHING! It sounds like he is trying to make sure you understand what he is saying but he is so dramatic it's annoying! He does not make himself clear, I could not understand what he was saying. I couldn't stand listening to him for more than 5 min. They don't explain why they are translating certain things the way they do, simply teach you to memorize. This technique isn't very helpful because when you try to speak the French language with your own ideas and thoughts they don't transfer the same way. They only say each word in French once, this does not give you enough experience with the words. This CD may be helpful for someone who is just wanting to learn a few French expressions for travel or a quick visit to France. It would have been more helpful to me to have an explaination of the language in between lessons. For example, when they say "I have a brown dog" literally translates to say "I have dog brown". Or why you put the numbers after the street. Just a little blurb would be nice, don't have to go into detail. So I bought the French for Dummies CD - LOVE IT! This one is going back! Au revoir!

Has all the basic French expressions a traveler would need. As French is hard to pronounce for most speakers of English, the phonetic pronunciations are very helpful

3.0 out of 5 stars Speaking French to strangers!
Reviewed in the United States on August 29, 2010

I did not find this CD and the accompanying booklet overly hepful as it didn't give me casual ways to converse with French family members....which is what I was hoping for. I did get some vocabulary and grammar review from it, but I found that it moved too quickly and did not give me enough time to incorporate the words and phrases in a useful way. All in all, I listend to it for awhile and then put it away. I may try again some other time, but I will also seek a CD that focuses more on personal conversation...that a family might have, rather than conversation that tourists would have if they were going to Paris or other French cities. That's when this CD would be more helpful. In France with French people rather than in the U.S. with French visitors.

I have a few other French phrase Cds and so far this is my favorite one. It is really helpful when they give the English and then the French so you can learn while you drive.
I wish the booklet came with this, but I ordered it separately. I was hesitant to buy this because of the low rating but I thought I'd give it a shot since the price was so nice. Very happy I did.

3.0 out of 5 stars “耳から覚えるほうが楽だ”という人へ
Reviewed in Japan on August 18, 2005
Verified Purchase
英語を使用する頻度が高い人や、英語で考えたほうが楽だ、という人を前提に書きます。
カセットテープは、英語のあとにフランス語が入っているので、歩きながらでも自然に覚えられます。フランス語の音声や感情表現は、比較的自然だと思います。
テキストは、発音に関して最初に説明があり、各単語や文ごとに、1-英語、2-フランス語、3-Roman字を使った発音の表記で英語話者向けになっています。テキストは印刷されただけの薄いシンプルなものです。旅行用のポケットサイズのPhrase Bookにありそうな内容と同じだという印象を受けました。
もし『耳から覚えないと先に進めない』という人や、『散歩しながら勉強したい』という人にはお勧めです。少なくとも私は楽しんでいます。
