Hugo Hindi in Three Months: Simplified Language Course

This book seems to be meant primarily for travelers who need some basic street Hindi to be able to communicate with native speakers easily. The Devanagari alphabet is ignored entirely, and grammar is not emphasised any more than is necessary. What the book does give you is a very solid and basic grounding at basic communication skills. The conversations on the tape are very useful in practical situations such as at the airport, marketplace or so on. But the book doesn't get very in depth, so if you want anything more than a casual introduction to spoken Hindi, you will need additionall resources. but as a starter course, this book can't be beat!

This book isn't for people wanting to learn advanced Hindi and complex Hindi grammar rules. This book is for people who want to learn some quick basic communication skills in Hindi. I found that I could communicate with people in Hindi, at an elmentary level, after studying with this book. This book helps one learn the basic aspects of Hindi.
