Want to learn Spanish
on: April 02, 2014, 09:09:12 PM
So around my area Spanish is a very prominent language as we have a huge number of legal/illegal immigrants in the area. Leave any opinions out of this thread. Anyways, I always wanted to learn Spanish and it would be used frequently. Just wondering if anyone knows of any FREE websites or programs that I can use to learn Spanish. I'm not talking like a FREE trial then you have to pay to complete the course, but a completely FREE way to learn as much as you wan't. Thanks everyone.

I'm not really sure if it's good or not but:

They have several other languages too. That should at least get you started with the basics...

I live in a town with a large Hispanic (mostly Colombian) population as well.  I keep telling myself to get the Rosetta Stone program, since Spanish would also be very useful at work as well.  The price puts me off though.
There's no such thing as "Too pretty to carry".  There's only "Too pretty NOT to carry"...... >:D

When I started (apart from 100% immersion, living in Spain) I got some basic exercise books including the "spanish for dummies"

I didn't think about that. It would definitely be a good book to have.  :tu:

This is the route that I went. Spanish for Dummies helped me quite a bit, but the immersion (Antigua, Guatemala) helped a bit as well ;)

There is also babbel.com, they also have apps for Android or IPhone. I have the swedish App. Good for building your vocabulary!
With the apps, you have to speak the vocabularies into the microphone, so you learn the proper way of saying it!  :tu:

I think they are from Germany, but I can change my language to 'english' in the options.
