Learning a new language (French)

[loctrice]

I recently starting doing French lessons with my daughter. I wanted a french to english sort of passive listening, but I can't find any that I like. I can find all french, but that's not what I'm looking for. I'd like to find some audio learning type of thing that says words/phrases in one language and then the other. Anyone know of anything like this?

Its called a dictionary :laugh: ;P

[loctrice]

We are using a program for learning at home together. I was looking for audio I can use as well. Can't really do passive listening on a dictionary.

Wrong. In this case its called le dictionnaire

Try the audiobook version.

I'd highly recommend Michel Thomas' courses[^].

Have a look at EuroTalk Interactive[^] - I have tried one of them many years ago, and IIRC it worked.

The most interesting thing I found when learning French, is that they don't have their own word for 'Entrepreneur'.

[Nagy Vilmos]

Must be dodgy, they've even got Hungarian!

I fart in your general direction.

I think words like 'destiny' are a way of trying to find order where none exists. - Christian Graus Entropy isn't what it used to.

Ah, the original 'yo momma' joke :laugh:

[Rage]

Why highly ? Any experience with it ?

How is this to be understood ? Have you forgotten the language after that ?

Yes I have.

[Rage]

If it was English, I can confirm you that it works ;P

Oui. :D

It was about 15 years or so ago - and so I can't remember how much of it I remember from them, and how much from using it! :laugh:
