Good set if you want to be grammatically correct, but a bit too much for those of us who want to just get around India
This book is not for beginners. It is complex and inaccurate. The basic "alphabet" is wrong and it places complex conjugations in the introductory lesson without laying out fundamentals. My family members are native Hindi speakers and thought this book was horrible. Also, within the first 25 pages of 300+pgs it jumps into fully written hindi only with little help in recognition and pronounciation. The "lessons" on the CDs are not well integrated with the book and start with natives in little skits speaking very rapidly instead of having simple lessons on basic words and phrases. There is a reason this book is on "sale".....
I must say this book really covers all the Hindi basics and more and it's a must for beginners, probably easier to start with for them. I am advanced in Hindi and used it for the audio and revising some grammar. I must say I even discovered a few things I didn't know. The only thing may be that the conversations are a little boring and not very brilliant, but you don't expect to be entertained, right?
Hindi: A Complete Course for Beginners (Book & 6 Audio CDs)Excellent material that is easy to follow.
I just love this method soo much! I had previously bought the Teach Yourself one, but after 6 months I finally got this one. And it's so much better! the CDs (6 of them!) are awesome, and the lessons are extremely clear and accurate. You can really feel your progresses throughout the different steps, with exercices and reviews. The Cultural notes also are a very good point, and a huge advantage compared to other teach yourself stuff. It helps you keep your feets on the ground! I definitely highly recommend it!
