More Pimsleur Samples

There are more Pimsleur samples on the site. Listen to a free first lesson of Pimsleur in any of these languages - Farsi (Persian), Russian, Hebrew, Dutch, Greek, Hindi and Polish. If you are learning or interested in learning any of these languages, it's a great way to see if you like the Pimsleur method or think it would be a good fit for you. I highly recommend trying out any method or program before you buy it whenever possible.

Learn Portuguese

Portuguese is a language rising in influence. Recent research has shown that the use of Portuguese on the internet is growing much faster than other languages. And it is increasing in popularity as a second or third language. Portuguese is often overlooked and a little overshadowed by Spanish, but is an interesting and widely spoken international language.

On my Learn Portuguese page you can listen to the first lesson of Pimsleur Portuguese Comprehensive, download BYKI Lite for Portuguese, or even try a demo for Rosetta Stone Portuguese all for free!

Not looking to spend any money on a full course? How about the full FSI Portuguese course with text and audio - there is a link there to a site with that course (and many others) that you can use to get a comprehensive knowledge of Portuguese for free!

Learn Swahili

Learn Swahili is a recent language addition to the site. I must admit I have neglected African languages. There are many and they are far removed from what I am familiar with. Many African languages have few or no resources to learn with, but since Swahili is a lingua franca in east Africa, it has some significant influence and therefore some resources to work with. If you are interested in Swahili take a look!
