These phrasebooks are designed to supply refugees with the appropriate English phrases and supplementary vocabulary for use in the daily activities of American life (rather than simply word-to-word translations, as in a dictionary). Phrases contained in the books have been selected for their
directness, brevity and relevance to the needs of newly arrived residents
of the United States. Among the nineteen units included are sections on "Giving Information
About Yourself," "Recognizing Signs," "Dealing With Money," "Health," "Food," "Clothing,"
"Housing," and "Jobs."
Each phrasebook is approximately 140 pages and can be downloaded for free by selecting the PDF icon .
