Speaking of exercises and stuff, some time ago I created this Java applet for French:
http://sen-works.net/francais/index.php?p=-robot It can be used to learn the numbers, the most common verb conjugations and some vocabulary. The word bank is not particularly rich right now, but I can fix this easily. The applet generates most of the derived forms, with only verb stems and irregularities being stored.

Whoever is hosting the wiki, you might want to look into a CAPTCHA for registration. There looks to be a lot of dummy accounts:
http://www.learnlangs.com/coursewiki/index.php?title=Special :Listusers&limit=50&offset=0 There are also some spam pages already: http://www.learnlangs.com/coursewiki/index.php?title=Special :Allpages
That's actually a valid suggestion... By the way, sprachprofi, why is there no German translation? I could write one up of course, but I figure it's better to let a native speaker do it... Edited by Liface on 12 November 2008 at 3:54am 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

Lesson 3 - Italian
Tom e Alex hanno parlato un pò e (ora)* stanno andando a casa di Alex. Lungo la strada, Alex mostra a Tom alcun_ ____ Alex: Questo è il fiume, e quello laggiù il famoso ponte. Tom: Interessante…E questo? Cos’è? Alex: É il museo di storia. Tom: No, non quello. Questo palazzo… moderno… Alex: Oh, questo è il museo d’arte. * ora (now) can be omitted in the Italian version… Definite articles: Singular &nbs p; Plural Il (masculine) I (masculine) Lo (masculine) Gli (masculine) La (feminine) Le (feminine) Word genders (adjectives): masculine and femenine usually you can form the femenine substituting the final letter (usually O) with a A… Ex: bello – bella / brutto – brutta Word genders (nouns): You can have masculine or feminine nouns Ex: gioco (m) / torta (f) Compound nouns “History museum” and “art museum” are not compound nouns in Italian…we have compounds like “cassaforte” (strongbox)…but for compound nouns like “history/art museum” we use a complement (complemento di specificazione – specification complement) Word order Italian is a SVO (Subject, verb, object) language, ex: “Io (subject) mi chiamo (verb) Giuseppe (object)… As it comes to “article, adjective, noun” order it becomes complex. Italian accepts both the “article + adjective + noun” order and the “article + noun + adjective” order…anyway the most used is the “article, noun, adjective”, the other one is a little bit of a “higher register” Lesson 4 - Italian Tom: Casa tua è molto lontana? Alex: No, ci siamo quasi. Sei stanco? Tom: No, non sono stanco. ... Alex: Ecco la mia famglia*. Questo è mio padre. Papà, questo è Tom. Tom: Piacere di conoscerla. Padre: Piacere mio. Alex: E questa è mia madre. Tom: È un piacere conoscerla. Madre: Anche per me. Alex: E... dove è John? Madre: John non è qui al momento. Lui e Sarah sono ad** una festa. Tom: John? Sarah? Alex, Sarah è tua sorella? Madre: John è suo fratello. Sarah è la sua*** ragazza. * In Italian we wouldn’t use the translation of “Let me introduce you to my family” (Permettimi di presentarti alla mia famiglia), a part in exceptional cases, like marriage purposals or in very very high formal situation…We are more likely to use “Questa è la mia famiglia” in informal situation (I didn’t put it to avoid the repetition of Questa – questo) ** the preposition would be A, but when 2 vowels “choke” we use (ONLY in the WRITTEN form) AD. This happens with all of the prepositions and conjunctions (E – ED) ***the last sentence is a little bit confusing in Italian (probably also in the original version)…try to re-write it in a simplier way Possessive pronouns Mio &nb sp;Mine Tuo &nb sp;Yours Suo &nb sp;His/Hers/Its Nostro Ours Vostro Yours Loro &n bsp;Theirs Note: I can’t find “younger brother/sister” anywhere in the text… 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

The Norwegian headline should be edited to Norwegian (Bokmål), since this country does have two variants of the language. No idea how to change that on the Wiki though, or if I even can do it myself.
