This book provides the short-term traveler the most essential words and phrases in 30 different languages necessary to enable that traveler to communicate with the population of each such country. Included for each of the 30 language translations is the phonetic pronunciation of each word presented so that an English-speaking person would be able to speak the word and be understood. The book is not intended to be a definitive language guide; but a convenient and handy tool to aid those who wish to have some discourse while traveling abroad.
