I took the dive and got the rosettastone for russian.

I haven't touched it in a while, but I always intend on going and doing some more learning. I will once I truly don't have anything better to do.

It's very nontraditional, I kid you not, the commercials have it bang on, you learn like you were picking up your native language.
starting with learning boys, girls, boy, girl, man, woman, men, women, then things like the man is running, the boy is swimming, and things like that. I just got past learning colors. since I'm not in any situations where I can use it every day my russian is always a little rusty. but I can read cyrillic somewhat.

while I will probably never be able to speak it on a native level, I do intend on being able to keep conversation.
