English Haitian Creole Medical Dictionary (Creole Edition)

Good

I lived and worked in Haiti for several years, so I already speak and read Creole. We didn't have a book like this to study from, but now that I am back in the States, I decided to get it to "bone up" because I am working with Haitians here.The book is fantastic and will be helpful to health professionals.The only beef I have with it is that there should be a pronunciation guide at the beginning of the book. Such as, "a" is pronounced as "ah" and "e" is pronounced as "a", "i" is "ee", etc. I can just hear the Americans pronouncing some of these words incorrectly and the people will not know what the Americans are talking about. Slight mispronunciations do make a difference in meaning in many words.BUY THIS BOOK!

It's a little superficial, but the pictures were good and together would explain things in a little more detail. My interpreter loved it and want to keep it. He is a senior at the local university and hopes to teach English there. I will buy a new one before my next trip for use in Haiti.

This is a simple English to Haitian Creole medical dictionary that includes illustrations. Ideal for an Egnlish speaker who either has Haitian Creole speaking patients in their area or who may be traveling to Haiti to provide service in a medical clinic or hospital. It is not very thick, pages are a bit large for a dictionary.

Although I do not speak Creole, I am an instructor in a college with a high percentage of Haitian students. This book was purchased for them, to assist them with learning the English words for the ones they know in Creole. Very good book with a good purpose.

Divided by specialties, it is a helpful aid but not exhaustive. Pronounciation key not included. Some diagrams included but not labled. I think this a nice companion book to have along with other Haitian Creole books.

I work in an area where there are many speakers of Haitian Creole, and this will help. Thank you!

I love this book! It's very accurate and very helpful. I'm going to school for Medical Interpreter and I recommend this book to anyone who's studying to be in the medical field or who's already in the medical field.
