## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    I like this book
  

*by M***D on Reviewed in the United States on 22 March 2024*

For various reasons, over my life I have been exposed to six or seven languages, including tonal ones, and even learned a few of those, including ASL.  Languages are fascinating, at least to me.  But the idea of just making up a reasonably plausible language was not in my experience.  I guess the Army did use their own made up language to select folks who could do well in language school.  That was fun too - taking a test based on a language you had just met - so to speak.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    A lot of great information
  

*by D***L on Reviewed in Canada on 23 June 2020*

This book breaks down languages in an amazing way. It breaks down the different sounds humans can make, tells you the history of some languages, compares the sentence structures of different languages, and many more.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Bought for my dissertation
  

*by R***A on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 2 October 2019*

I used this as a good starting part for my dissertation, the casual style and little jokes throughout makes research much more manageable, and gives you a lot of opportunities to delve into further depth with your own studies if needs be. Plus, I just love the dude, I'm a huge fan of Dr Peterson and his work
