A little OT buuuut I want to learn a new language, can't find old thread.

[NEMSZ]

I saw a thread on here before about learning a new language and I can't find it...

Someone had posted that they learned very quickly and was able to Skype with someone and all through that program and price was very responsible..

If someone can please point me in the right direction I'd appreciate it.

I'm Italian but my parents never taught me since I grew up here in the states so I'm trying to learn my language lol then I'd like to proceed to Potuguese. I'm very fluent in Spanish as it was my first language so I was told the transition should he easy.

Thanks in advance...

You could try Duolingo, it's free and you will like it. Promise. Si necesitas más información dímelo sin problemas.

I'm told the Rosetta Stone program is very good. They bought some other technology recently and integrated with what they had. Just got the Portuguese 1-3 myself. I'm a little lucky in that my wife is from Brazil so I can practice on her until it drives her nuts, lol.

Duolingo is what I am using. It is free. It has many languages. Schools are using it to supplement learning. Great product!

The online version is better then the app.
There are threads like a forum thread for every question where students and professors alike explain why the answer is what it is.
I learn more on these threads then the lessons alone. This info is only online not the app though

Thanks fellas, really appreciate it! I gave the Duolingo a try today and actually learned a few phrases, my mom was impressed. I'm hoping I can be fluent within a few months learning more and talking to my family...
