A site for learning to speak a different foreign words
There is a free and useful website ( http://www.infoext.com/lang/ )
lanuched recently for people who would like to learn to speak the very
basics of different languages. Enough for you to start a basic
conversion with a local or to impress your foreign friends. Visit it
before travelling would make you welcome in most foreign lands.
They have languages availble in
French Japanese Italian German Portuguese Hindi
right now, but Chinese and Korean will be added soon.

The locals will have fun:
> English German
> ----------------------------------------------------------------
> Good Morning Gutes Monring!
> Lady (polite) Gracious Frau
> Excuse me! [...] (Obviously doesn't exist in German :-)
> I am sorry. ich bin traurig.
> Very well, thanks. Sehr gut Dank.
> No, I am English Nein, Ich bin englisch.
Half of the phrases is missing anyway.
Please do some homework before spamming again.

I'd also like to recommend Tucholsky's "Deutsch für Amerikaner" (see
<[email protected]>) once again.

Pretty hard to beat TravLang (http://travlang.com/languages/) as a good
place to learn the basics of many languages.

euphemism "hovercraft".

Don't be ridiculous! It works perfectly! I checked on German to
English, and "Wo findet man ein preiswetes Hotel?" translates
perfectly to "You have lovely thighs. Like to come to my place, make
bouncy-bouncy?"
