I am downloading the Michel Thomas German and Dutch right now though, it looks alright.
WEll jsut imagine me ... coming here to live and work without even knowing a word ... and buying games which are some ONLY in German ... and i do not even understand a word ... so ... it was quite nerve wrecking and since i am not an dictionary person i couldn't learn by reading dictionaries or such so i just LABA LABA bla bla bla a lot and my german is quite good now
