+# kauderwelsch-dl
+
+Download phrase book audio files for the German [Kauderwelsch](https://www.reise-know-how.de/produktreihe/kauderwelsch-sprachfuehrer-42848) series.
+
+To download, run: `sh kauderwelsch-dl.sh` (no requirements but standard POSIX tools).
+
+This will create a directory named `kauderwelsch` with subdirectories called something like `006 Japanisch` (Japanese, no. 6 in the series).
+These directories contain all available audio recordings for the respective languages.
