Blizzard is a great movie for family viewing. It’s good for learning to take responsibility for what you do and facing the consequences. Plus, it’s a good story. We all enjoyed it very much.[keyword]learn+french+summer[/keyword][yahooquestion]learn+french+summer[/yahooquestion]

So Barack Obama wants everyone to learn a foreign language, but which one should it be?
The British learn French, the Australians study Japanese and the Americans prefer Spanish. And this leaves Mandarin Chinese out of the equation.
Interestingly nine British MP's have nominated Esperanto for the Nobel Peace Prize 2008.

I don’t think it’s so much your ears being tuned to hear the differences in the sound as your brain. I’m fairly sure most of our ears hear the differences between say b and v. However if you grew up only with languages that do not distinguish between the two, your brain just treats them as the same sound, and for example is unable to differentiate between two words that differ only in that one syllable (there’s a word specifically for such words that let you identify these sounds in a language, but I don’t remember enough of the only linguistics course I got to take to remember it :S). Personally even though I’ve met lots of people who can’t distinguish between various sounds in the languages I do know, I find it really hard to understand how since they sound so different to me. But at the same time I’m told I pronounce the opening P sound in the french Pierre completely wrong, even though to my ears I say it exactly the same as my linguistics prof said it – I didn’t learn french early enough apparently, and map the correct P and the incorrect P to the same thing in my head.
I have downloaded the basic french course from speedlearninglanguages com yesterday and have listened to the audio course for about 5-6 hours. I can really recommend it. Thank you for the tip.
Right done a close reading past paper and written an essay…. Going to learn French writing and study for computing then I'm finitoooo
