A useful foreign-language resource?

Post by Robert_Moriyama »

Good Housekeeping's Site of the Day<br><br>Languages<br>http://www.bbc.co.uk/languages/<br><br>The BBC has put together a site to introduce visitors to different languages. French, German, Spanish, Italian and Other languages, including Greek and Portuguese, European and United Kingdom languages, Chinese and Japanese are all featured. You'll find resources for learning these languages as well as 'News Services' presented in 43 different languages. 'Your Say' has entertaining as well as educational articles posted, from Word Oddities to Blunders; submitting your own is always fun as is browsing through other visitors' submissions (do you know that when Bretons 'bones are cooking,' they're merely tired, not roasting their skeleton?). If you're 'Changing Places' or interested in language as the 'main concept in culture,' this site will give you valuable insight and resources for further study. Here's the perfect opportunity to expand your horizon in the language area!
You can't wait for inspiration. You have to go after it with a club.

Jack London (1876-1916)
