Awesome! Thanks. My son has been wanting me to teach him Italian, but I don't remember enough from childhood and the year I spent living there as an adult, to help him out, so this is very helpful! IP: Logged |

Thank you, Absinthe. I was just telling my sister, that I was disappointed in myself. I started to learn Italian, nine years ago and here I still am with no renewed passport, never having gone to Italy... (I was wanting to visit, and maybe stay for a few months). There was another one that I saw a few years ago, specifically for Italian. Here it is: http://www.learnitalianpod.com IP: Logged |

It seems like a great resource. However when I opened the Bulgarian tapes, the readers do not annunciate anything. I can't really hear the words in my own language! Hopefully the other languages are better.IP: Logged |
