Aloha All, I am going to school for applied linguistics. I am studying Russian on my own right now. I have come across a ton of great resources for several languages I thought I should share: Language learning/languages in general: http://how-to-learn-any-language.com/e/index.html <- Solid reference for different languages and forums are nice too. http://fsi-language-courses.org/Content.php <-Old gov courses now in the public domain. Can be a bit cumbersome and some of the stuff isn't great for those studying on their own. http://www.effectivelanguagelearning.com/language-guide/language-difficulty <-Language difficulty rankings. Swedish: https://itunes.apple.com/se/itunes-u/swedish-introductory-corse/id517215843?mt=10 http://www.ielanguages.com/swedish1.html http://www.personal.psu.edu/adr10/swedish.html German: http://www.dw.de/learn-german/german-courses/s-2547 <-Haven't used but it is highly rated. Russian: http://www.russianforfree.com <- Great for beginners. http://russianmentor.net <-For the intermediate student. A pain to navigate. http://www.russian.ucla.edu/beginnersrussian/student/Chap1.htm http://s167926134.onlinehome.us/beginners-russian/index.html http://masterrussian.com Polish: http://www.skwierzyna.net/learn_polish.htm Kyrgyz: http://www.sras.org/english_kyrgyz_phrasebook http://www.eric.ed.gov/ERICWebPorta...&ERICExtSearch_SearchType_0=no&accno=ED461284 <-Download for old peacecorps textbook. http://kyrgyz.peacecorps.gov/Audio.php
