These phrases are essential and memorizing them BEFORE YOU GO is a must. The french are a very polite people. Be sure you always say pardon monseuir, or madamoiselle(or madam)...when addressing someone. If you don't they will see you as a rude american. I bought "pimsleur's quick and easy french" (on CD) from my local book store and listened to it in my car for the few weeks before my trip. VERY HELPFUL!
