Big mistake - there goes the laptop!
« on: December 16, 2003, 20:22:32 »
Gave daughter the 'Transparent Language' 'Learn French Now' for her birthday - going to France next year.

Do wish it had been like this in the 'olden days'. A really comprehensive interactive audio/video CD - nice people, sensible situations.

But I now have to queue for the machine. Another trouble at the moment is that her pronunciation frequently gets a 'WOW' rating, while mine gets 'keep practising'!! = Tim

It? Which?

Dreamdirect do the one I've got (and also  Japanese, Chinese, Dutch, Swedish, Polish Hebrew - and Irish!, in addition to the ones I mentioned above )- but I see that they do  do Greek under another label - 'World Talk'.  Even Zulu!! = Tim

Dreaming again - the Greek bit was for bb, of course!

Zulu, now's there is a language you can use in everyday life! (wouldn't it be fabulous though to be able to speak it!)  I was thinking French Tim, for my daughter , and maybe myself! (gotta do something whilst I am not in my garden ;D Thank you for the information, I will try and find it on the WWW!
