Customer Reviews

A big help!
This book has made learning the language easy. Would like to see more examples of how words are pronounced.

Haitian Creole language
Fantastic book. I had the book for a while then I found the CD that goes with it. I would highly recommend the CD with book purchase. It all makes sense when you see it written AND hear it pronounced.

Great Creole Book!
Use this book and the acompanying CD and you will have a good dominion of creole for any work you might do in Haiti. You will not be a fluent speaker, but you will know enough creole to communicate and understand others.
