it has levels, the highest goes all the way up to completely fluent...I think each has basically 2 levels you can buy, basic stuff and fluency

we are just at the beginning of level 1 though, I will let you know

but they say it is one of the better language courses out there

i can't wait to tackle Italian after French

**tony286** · 07-08-2006, 05:52 PM

This shit rocks, it makes learning languages really easy

I bought the 1st level of Spanish a few months ago but haven't even opened the box yet. It looks like it's very easy to use but I just have to find time to dedicate to it.

You've inspired me to give it a try. Thanks!

Looks like a gas. I'm thinking of learning Japanese, I might give that a try soon.

it really is cool, it has a microphone thing where it says the phrase then you say it, and measures wavelengths to see if it was said correctly

**DutchTeenCash** · 07-08-2006, 06:36 PM

nice

well if you ever wanna practise your dutch you know who to ask

**L-Pink** · 07-08-2006, 06:46 PM

Jace, is this French Ebonics ?

**SirMoby** · 07-08-2006, 06:51 PM

I have the Russian course and while it's not bad it is so boring that I often can't finish a lesson because I start falling asleep.

**Wiggles** · 07-08-2006, 06:58 PM

i think my wife has a few of these.

**cyberstar** · 07-08-2006, 08:00 PM

**cyberstar** · 07-08-2006, 08:03 PM

http://www.unforgettablelanguages.com - this is REALLY cool stuff... you learn new words by associating them with the worlds in your own language. LOVE this one!
