Complete Urdu with Two Audio CDs: A Teach Yourself Guide (TY: Language Guides)

cool

This is a great book! I'm using it with a class, but it would be easy to use to learn on your own. There is a healthy mixture of grammar notes and conversations, to keep it interesting. The script is thoroughly explained, and in the dialogues, all the vocabulary is translated and transliterated. It's very easy to read.I do wish there were an index, and a better table of contents, to make this a better reference text.

Very well written

I really liked this book. It takes you from beginner to intermediate by the end of the book. You get to know both colloquial and formal speech. 10/10 would recommend.
