    That's right, Franchise :cool: . I need to do those CDs from the library again... they help you by making you repeat the stuff they say, and you pick it FAST. They also have them for Portuguese,MoBalls, but I bet you're PAST the beginner stuff.

    A little Spanish, enough to get by
    Enough Vietnamese to order food, that's about it.

    Really know? English.

    With a little help, I can understand what's going on in Spanish... as long as the speakers slow down.

    Took four semesters of German in college. Don't remember much beyond a few phrases like, "The blackboard is green" and "You are a potato-head."

    Tried to teach myself Latin once. It lasted about a week and then I just memorized some Latin words and phrases. Audio, video, disco!
