Query: Unless you want to be hanged...

Although this may leaves many feeling confident in a new language, it most certainly is not enough to get around with.It's quite annoying to read this book, almost like watching people trying to use sticks as wheels. The author seems to think that knowing small bits of vocabulary in a language is fluency enough to carry on diplomatic conversations with natives.Basically, it says that for the most part grammar in all languages is in essence the same as in English, and that one need not learn much about it, and spend more time on the vocabulary.Well, in most languages, saying a literal translation of "I need to go to the bathroom" won't get you very far. If the natives /do/ understand, it will be at their expense (loss of time, energy, youthfulness, and brain cells).
