Hi Everyone,

I found this site on another forum I frequent, its free language lessons available for download-

http://fsi-language-courses.org/Content.php

 

The courses were developed for the US government and are public domain (so nobody should get in trouble!), to encourage worldwide language learning.

Wave

If you can't be a shining example, be a terrible warning!

Thanks for that link Michelle.  Having checked the French one, I find that I have great difficulty in hearing what is being said.  I might check the Swedish one later, but OH is coming to take me to lunch in a moment...   I_am_Hungry

I'll try that again!

Turkish text looks good and I checked the tape and the sound is very good. Jon will be pleased with this link....it is difficult to keep up with language when you are not using it continuously. It gives me a headache each evening having to speak Turkish all day. Luckily the dogs speak english so I get a one way conversation some time in the day.

The more people I meet, the more I love my animals!

That is a brilliant resource, Michelle. WellDone

I can have an Italian lesson running in the background just to refresh my fading memory of the language. It sounds very good and the text is very well constructed even if it was bashed out on a typewriter 50 years ago.

Unfortuately my Bugarian guys speak Turkish but not sure they are able to write it so when I show them the written word....they no can do....and the Bulgarian they speak and again I get the impression that they no can do.  I must admit though I love the Turkish....Allah is responsible for everything from rest to sun up.....WhistleWhistle
