About this ebook
All PA-German speakers are bilingual with the exception of small children. Knowing PA-German is not necessary for communication. Therefore this phrase book does not focus on travel phrases which might come in handy if you were traveling in a foreign country. The phrases and questions given in this book are common ones which can be used to ask a simple question, start a conversation or give an appropriate reply in PA-German.
Languages can be an interesting and fun topic of conversation. Perhaps you can find a native speaker who is willing to help you with pronunciation. If you are a serious student of PA-German, this book will give you a good start.
