PHP is good 🙂


Anyway, the Rosetta stone software is supposed to be pretty good, but I haven't used it becasue it costs $$$$$.

Forget the software, head to your local library get a whatever-english dictionary and a bunch of childrens books in the language you want to learn. Sit down, and keep reading more and more until you can read a new book without relying on the dictionary. Then grab some books on tape, and listen until you get it. Then try talking to some people in your new language to polish it up.

i tried the Rosetta Stone demo version from the website and i was not thrilled, it jumps right away to repeating words and phrases, it expects you to know a little bit already.
