• Does anyone here speak English? Est-ce que quelqu’un parle anglais ici? (es-ker kel-ken parl ahn-gle ee-see)
Some of the French phrases are marked with an asterisk, giving an indication of the kind of reply you might get to your questions, and of questions you may be asked in turn.
With an elegant cover and easy-to-read design that are the hallmarks of Penguin Books, this essential reference will have you feeling at home no matter where your travels take you.
