Learning a Language (or Six) in Your Spare Time

in Language Lessons | July 29th, 2009 2 Comments

Steve Kaufmann, who runs www.thelinguistblogs.com, says a few words to get us inspired to learn more languages than we currently know (however many that may be). One great place to start is with our collection of free foreign language lessons. These audio lessons will help you learn over 35 languages, including Arabic, Mandarin, French, German, Italian, English, Spanish and many others. You can also access these free language lessons via our iPhone app.

    Thanks for the great resources! I’m always looking for new ways to improve my foreign language skills. Currently I’m trying to master Spanish, and I happen to really like SpanishDict. They’ve got great Spanish translation and other good, free stuff. Good luck to my fellow language learners!
