I went to East Timor over Christmas and New Year with a friend. We got by mostly on Indonesian because we studied it at school for a few years. When I was over there, a lot of it came flooding back. Neither of us spoke Portugese. WE learnt a bit of Tetun but not much. Fascinating place and great people. They were really friendly, helpful and generous, with a great sense of humour. Thanks for the resources.

Tetun is a really interesting language although few good resources are available. I've heard that the Lonely Planet East Timor Phrasebook is one of the best Tetun resources around.
