Summary: Quite good, actually
Comment: Normally I don't like the books in the Teach Yourself series, since they're much to often based on artficial forms of the language in question and aren't that user-friendly. This book is one of the best, though. It presents a very neat presentation of Welsh, explaining most forms of grammar and giving a decent vocabulary. I do recommend it, but want to point out that Colloquial Welsh by Gareth King is an even better and more complete introduction to Welsh

Summary: Make another selection
Comment: The worst foreign language package I have ever purchased. The tape set jumps immediately from "hello" and "goodbye" into long, complicated, and untranslated dialogues entirely in Welsh. This makes it useless for listening to in the car. The book, after an introductory pronunciation guide, offers no pronunciation help afterward, which, in Welsh, would appear to be essential. This was a complete waste of $20.

Summary: Welsh : A Complete Course for Beginners
Comment: Generally a well organized course for beginners and veryhelpful steering the student through the dreaded mutations minefieldrampant in Welsh. The tapes are clear and aid the student develop an ear for this ancient language through native and 2nd language speakers of both genders and ages. The appendix, vocabulary and key to exercises are invaluable as memory aids.
