For many if not most languages, there will also be culture- or country-specific words and phrases that should also be included. A reasonable number -- twenty to thirty, say -- of these can and should be included in the phrasebook.

It's more important that most travellers can make themselves understood, than that some travellers with a knowledge of IPA and a knack for languages get the language down exactly. Getting things "close enough" for most students is more important than getting any one student's accent perfect.
