The right Czech textbook?

[Pietiemini]

Hey all,

I am desperate to learn the Czech language as I have a Czech girlfriend for a while now, but unfortunately I cannot communicate very well with her family..

Can someone please tell which book(s) can help me out big time with the whole language pack?? I want to know the words, grammar everything!

Thanks!!

P.s. I don't have tape-players

Hello!

I put some pictures of the most common textbooks on FB - with comments: www.facebook.com/czech.in.prague.

You might also find this helpful to start learning Czech.

That "start learning czech" is a great resource.

I agree with with Scrimshaw. What a wonderful resource for learning Czech. Am not learning at the moment but I am sure it would have been very useful. I've bookmarked the site, just in case I start again.

Hi Jano, I took that survey on your 'Start learning czech' web site. That is a very useful link. You did a great job. Professionally done and easy to navigate. Good luck with it.

I found "Coloquial Czech" by James Naughton to be fantastic without a teacher, and "Czech Step by Step" fantastic with a teacher (though some people have used it successfully without a teacher).
