Thanks for that. Sounds good, as long as your mate isn't the 'Good Will Hunting' of languages!Silvercloud said:A mate of mine got it to learn Italian for work. Said it was really easy to get into and well worth the money. He's just got the German one and reckons he's flying through that as well.
Quality........you're probably right about the pronunciation as well, but you can only try!aphex said:why bother?
just point and shout, they will only mock your bad pronunciation

You live in the wrong part of town then. Go to Burnage, as it's practically frowned upon to sit in a park without a 3 litre bottle of White Lightning!aphex said:i'd love to go down to my local park with a 3 ltr bottle of cider, but apparently it's frowned upon.

That'd be nice, as they are expensive. I'm not going to pay top whack for it anyway, as I was hoping to bid on one on ebay and hopefully get it for about £220.mat said:davymcfc said:i wanted to get the spanish one but it was like 500 quid. im a tight arse.
I'm sure someone on here can get you a copy for next to nowt.

Nice idea, but I have skills that would get me a job in France. Also, I'm into my 23rd year in the Army and there are no jobs in France for me! Mind you, we could invade...Swales lives said:malg said:That'd be nice, as they are expensive.

Why don't you get a job in France and live there for a year whilst learning on the job?
That's how I did it.

leighton said:My brother got that in Spanish before he went to South America said it was the biggest waste of money ever. He got by with it but found that because he had some Spanish they were asking him questions that he hadnt got a clue about. Since he has come home he has gone on a course to learn Spanish and is finding that 100 times better than Rosetta Stone and cheaper as well. Look at your local college for a starter course and progress that way.
There is a local college that does it, but I'm a lazy sod and can't be arsed going. Might have to review it. Mind you the college course is quite cheap, so it'd probably be better to make a mistake with that than spend over £200 (if I can get it cheap on ebay)....bollox, I'll just take the earlier advice and point and shout!leighton said:My brother got that in Spanish before he went to South America said it was the biggest waste of money ever.
