Language

Overview:

Privately studying, or trying to, Japanese, Chinese (Mandarin) and I shall attempt to recapture my French that dissipated after university. I don’t plan on being some sort of translator or advanced user but I would like to have more than a rudimentary skill level.

A comment on the Japanese and Chinese podcasts is here. Also recently found a French podcast.

Speaking of audio experiences check out these posts from Velcrometer’s “Que the Hell Pasa” parts 1, 2, 3 and 4. I recall seeing additional posts when they first came out but can’t find them now. Yes, I realise that posting something a few years old might be odd in the fast paced world of the Internet, but I liked them, when I first read it (at work) I was in hysterics. I probably enjoyed them so much because I had to listen to so many like them and on several occasions been a voice on tape - having similar thoughts as I said my lines. 

It won’t be at Berlitz though: Read the post.
