I had a bunch of CDs from my dad. Think they were given away in the Daily Mail or Telegraph.

Tried them out myself and was enjoying them during morning and evening commute to work. But never carried on and can't remember anything I learned.

However, at the time, I also scoured the net and there's plenty of freebie stuff out there before you start spending with Rosetta Stone.

Surprised it took so long:)

Don't even attempt any Basque/Euskara whatsoever.

 

Imagine trying to learn Welsh whilst on acid.

Very clever

Lad I know emigrated and needed to learn quickly, he was convinced he learned quicker watching Spanish kids TV programmes than lessons but he was from Leeds.

That's bollocks, I watched loads of Spanish kids' programmes as an erm, kid, and didn't learn a jot of spanish.

I would be knackered if I had to learn another language. I don't know why but they just don't click with me. I lived in holland for a while and had a dutch girlfriend but I still could barely speak a word. I have forgot the little I did know too, weird.

When I learned Spanish I just went to Little Lever school on Wednesday nights. They had a couple of free classes, beginners and advanced. Admittedly this was over a decade ago so I don't know if the same program runs.

 

I tried the same with Japanese but that was a lot harder.

Easy enough to learn the words, but writing it down really befuddled me...

 

And I learned Russian easy enough.

 

I'm not even going to try Mandarin.

I still have a problem with my Klingon

Use wet wipes, they're far superior.

Can anyone recommend the best/quickest way of doing this? I'm new to learning Spanish but want to up my game doing it
