Come to think, they should make that compulsory (sending wrapped in newspaper I mean). 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

This never happened to me at Blackwell's though--it is like a sort of heaven for language learners if one goes to the foreign language section. I think in my life I have spent around £500 there on language materials. Edited by 1e4e6 on 21 November 2013 at 11:06pm 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

You watch a TV documentary because you know that the presenter speaks the language of the country
where the programme is being filmed. Yet you have no real interest in the subject matter being covered. 2 persons have voted this message useful | ||||||

...when on a slow Saturday morning, you take the opportunity to practice listening comprehension in French &
Spanish by watching youtube videos in these languages about Catalan & Provencal. 6 persons have voted this message useful | ||||||

When you use a fun thread to ask a fellow language learner for the specific link to the quoted post because the Google search on HTLAL has just failed you (and you are looking for opinions on another book from the same series. Badly.) Serpent, would you give me the address? :) 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

One of my favorites! Guilty! Right now though, stored in my iTouch are over a hundred Chinese podcast lessons (plus other languages) and I've listened to each Chinese podcast lesson several times. I am so tempted to download many more Spanish, Russian, French and other languages, but I must focus, focus, focus. Once my Chinese is more fluent, I'll allow myself to download a lot more podcasts and a lot more languages! I can't wait!

When you're disappointed that these cute pictures include so few languages.
