Question:

Where can I find a book that has pictures instead of translations?

A couple of years ago I saw an ad for a book (or maybe just a pamphlet) for travelers. Instead of trying to translate "I am thirsty, I would like a glass of water, please," into ten different languages, it had a image of a glass of water. A traveler could point to image and get the message across. The book was a well-thought out set of images specifically picked for the traveler, like motel, airport, train station, police, hospital, bank, restaurant, toilet, not to mention all kinds of food items. It couldn't possibly cover all situations, but it would be easier than an English/foreign language dictionary. This has got to be on the web some where, but I haven't found it. Help!

  2. I do not know where you can get one, But perhaps you could make one. By downloading Various pictures and printing them onto card and Perhaps even Buy a Scrapbook or something to Stick them into...

    I hope this helps, If not then Sorry.

    Try looking on Ebay.
