Does anyone have recommendations for any home use language software / programs? I've seen and heard about Rosetta Stone, and hear it's good. I'm specifically looking to learn German.
I'll be taking a beginner's German course in the next 2-3 months, but for now I'm just looking for something to get me started.
I've been in Germany for a week now and will be here for the next 3-5 years. I'm sure getting out and mingling with the locals will be the best way to learn, but that's easier said that done. For the first time, I am the ignorant foreigner that can't speak language X and let me tell you... it's not a good feeling.
I went to Luxembourg (French speaking) the other night to catch a flick and it sucks when you can't understand someone and can only give back a blank stare and shrug.
Thanks for any recommendations.
