It’s been a while since I was immersing myself in language education.  I feel bad to have not mastered a language other than English, especially because I find the process of learning another language so fascinating.

On the old Bean (nothing but an archive in my home computer now) I wrote up an entire post testing the merits of a handful of online language learning sites.  I imagine that most of the information is obsolete now, even though many of the sites still operate and send me news emails regularly.

Anyway, enough boo hooing and reminiscing.  FSI Language Courses has texts and mp3s of the language programs developed by the Foreign Service Institute.  If you want to learn a language, why not learn the way military and diplomats have before?  And do it for free.

I am going to brush up on some stuff right after NaNoWriMo.  I promise.
