Rating: 4
Summary: Great!
Comment: It is a very good book covering all the structures to live in Romania, and now to travel. It contains all the grammar, verbs, conjunctions, prepositions, etc. It lacks only the useful vocabulary to travel as how to buy tickets to catch a train, how to find out an address, to get a taxi an so forth.
I recommend this book to all who want to acquire romanian language to a full level. The tapes are good, except for the fact there are only three different voices (and two of then of old people. The young people have better voice!).
The glossary is not complete. The book has about 1.300 words.
It is a good purchase.
Rating: 5
Summary: good, clear recordings
Comment: I can't assess the accuracy or effectiveness of this course yet, but I gave it a good rating based on certain criteria.
First. I have long used Linguaphone courses. I have always found their standards to be the best in language courses. They don't produce a course in Romanian, but they do recommend this one. That influenced my decision to buy it.
Second. A good and effective language course has to have conversational speech in the language by native speakers. These can be variable. The old US military language courses were done on 78rpms or tapes in the 40s or 50s. Unscrupulous producers of language courses were able to buy that old [stuff]and repackage it pretending they had a decent language course in such exotic languages as Telugu and Tibetan and Albanian. The sentences were ok but the actual phonic reproduction was muddy and garbled. They are a complete ripoff. They weren't rerecorded nor even "cleaned-up", and they're still being touted as acceptable language courses.
This course has good clear recordings, with the desirable option of cassette or CD. So for these reasons I feel this course warrants five stars.
