Good day all,

When I was working in Algeria, about two years ago, I am sure somebody

posted a link for a download of some multilingual cards. These were

the point to the English question, turn to the relevant page in what

ever language you were trying to communicate in and there was the

question and I think a few choice answers. You could then turn back

to the English page and see what his answer was. Is this ringing any

bells with anybody? I've tried a search amongst the message files but

no joy. Any help appreciated.

Nigel,

You could try the Red Cross multi-lingual phrasebook:

http://www.redcross.org.uk/shop/product.asp?id=59825

<http://www.redcross.org.uk/shop/product.asp?id=59825 & category=74078>

& category=74078

It has the English phrases on fold-out sections on the covers so that, once

you have turned to the right language page, you have the English and the

other language side-by-side.

Best Wishes

Tom Crellin

Thank you Tom, for that link. If I can not find the freebie, I will

try and get the 20 quid to buy this book.
