A site for learning to speak a different foreign words
There is a free and useful website ( http://www.infoext.com/lang/ )
lanuched recently for people who would like to learn to speak the very basics of different languages. Enough for you to start a basic conversion with a local or to impress your foreign friends. Visit it before travelling would make you welcome in most foreign lands. They have languages availble in French Japanese Italian German Portuguese Hindi right now, but Chinese and Korean will be added soon. |

Pretty hard to beat TravLang (http://travlang.com/languages/) as a good
place to learn the basics of many languages. |

You know, "My hovercraft is full of eels?" Don't be ridiculous! It works perfectly! I checked on German to English, and "Wo findet man ein preiswetes Hotel?" translates perfectly to "You have lovely thighs. Like to come to my place, make bouncy-bouncy?" - TR - a Monty Python lexicographer. |

And the Italian is spoken unrecognisably slowly. -- --- DFM - http://www.deepfriedmars.com --- -- |
