I'm curious what free resources you all use for language learning. The obvious one is the internet...but what else?
For example, I did a search in Apple's App Store for "learn Japanese" and dozens of free apps are available for download (most are the "lite" version). These could potentially be a nice supplemental resource while traveling (and I'm sure there are similar apps in the Android Market). Have you found anything like this worth sharing? 1 person has voted this message useful | |

Libraries can also be handy. Public libraries tend to have newer courses and dictionaries while research/university libraries have older courses/textbooks or specialists' works.
This may be a stretch but getting involved with applicable expat groups on Meetup or making friends with visitors on Couchsurfing/Hospitality Club/BeWelcome/Pasporta Servo can present unexpected bonuses for studying languages with a bit of luck and perserverence. For example I got hold of a native speaker of Inari Saami via the latter to the extent that I got some tips for more resources and even corrections for my homework gratis as my textbook lacked an answer key. 2 persons have voted this message useful | |

I like to use phone applications for the radio in my target language and also the
dictionaries that are available are quite handy. Also my friend gave me a tv program where you can watch tv stations from around the world, which is definitely pretty handy - its called "Readon TV Movie Radio Player". Still I don't really like to rely on things from the internet all the time, which is why I generally just buy a physical book if I really want it as a resource. 2 persons have voted this message useful |
