RECOMMENDED FOR EVERY TRAVELLER LONELY PLANET PHRASEBOOKS ~ Eastern Europe Phrasebook With so much packed into such a small book, don't expect to find more than the basics: hotels, restaurants, emergency, embassy and entertainment words and phrases.

This book helps in that department, just don't expect to be speaking fluent Hungarian after reading the chapter. Whether you're dipping into history, exploring the arts scene, or simply enjoying the sun set, the 11 languages in this phrasebook will help you tune into the local lore. Covers Albanian, Bulgarian, Croatian (with Serbian), Czech, Hungarian, Macedonian, Polish, Romanian, Russian, Slovak and Slovene.
