Teach Yourself Irish Conversation (3CDs + Guide)

Donall Maire

See product details

This is a wonderful companion to the Teach Yourself Irish book, using many of the same phrases but showing how pronunciation could vary widely between the three main dialects. This primarily audio package is also comprehensive enough that you could easily get by on a weekend or visit to Ireland using this and only this.

The Teach Yourself Irish Conversation is a wonderful companion to this book, using many of the same phrases but showing how pronunciation could vary widely between the three main dialects. This is a decent language instruction course, but using the other package in conjunction with it has been invaluable to me.

Pride and Prejudice and Zombies: The Classic Regency Romance - Now with Ultraviolent Zombie Mayhem! | Jane Austen

You Can't Spell Slaughter without Laughter!

This book has it all- romance, adventure, betrayal, redemption, undead violence… read review
