Accessible Travel Phrasebook (PDF)
All travellers will get more out of their trip by being able to speak a few words of the local language, but for people with a disability it’s often vital to be able to explain your particular needs. Since standard phrasebooks are unlikely to contain the language you need to talk about needs around disability, Lonely Planet has gathered together some disability-specific words and phrases and translated them into many different languages.
- 35 languages, from Arabic to Vietnamese
- About 100 disability-specific words and phrases
- Easy-to-use pronunciation guides
- Glossary of common conditions
- Vocabulary relating to hotels and transportation
- Equipment you might need
- Explaining about your allergies
- Getting help
