People who know me know that I do not have a flair for languages. They laugh that my tongue always seems twisted when I attempted to learn a new language and they comment that I need to gurgle my mouth with oil or kiss a native speaker. Bah how mean can people be?
Last week, I received a piece of bad news from my boss. Well, good news for him, bad news for me! His associate from Germany will be coming over and they have a big transaction at stake and my boss told me to LEARN German to entertain him! What the ...?
My boss said that since I already know a smattering of German, it should not be a problem for me now to learn from Pimsleur Language Audio Books. Well, the smattering that I already know were picked up from a radio program yeas ago!
Anyway, his wish is my command so I checked out AnEarForBooks.com to find that they have all languages imaginable in audio format. Since I learned a little German from the radio, I do believe that listening to a new language is the fastest way to pick it up. It beats reading anytime!
AnEarForBooks.com has a full page of completely free downloadable audiobooks with a total of 32 titles currently. Well, you know I don't have time to read anymore but hey, that's something I could not resist downloading. I could LISTEN to them while blogging! I need to thank my boss for letting me know of the site!
