- From the page: "While most travelers understand this, who wants to buy and carry around a pile of language books? Fortunately, there are a number of excellent internet sites devoted to language study, most of them providing their services for free."

- yeah, we should always continue to learn from different culture, and to break the ice, learn their langauge first.

- "Salut Josie ! Qu'est-ce que c'est ?" "Ça c'est une Twinkie. Pâtisserie d'Amérique." This site is both free and useful especially for young people who have lots of time and wish to bargain in markets, exchange social conventions when meeting people and find the bus station or read the train station signs and bus destinations. It is aimed at those self motivated travelers who want to speak the languages of the peoples of the nations they visit. That task can be straight forward or rather challenging. The list of languages is comprehensive. The site's resources can be adjusted for beginner, intermediate or advanced learning. You can refresh your knowledge and even learn to write in other alphabets which is helpful depending upon the length of time you will be in a nation. There are extended resources including discussions that extend the number of options available for learning your next language. The more you learn for the road the better. Just do not mistake this for becoming fluent or being able to do close reading in philosophy afterwards. They are different applications of language study.
