And after reading everyone's multilingual abilities I feel like a real moron. About the only phrase that sticks in my mind that my grandmother taught me is either Polish or Bohemian-'ya milooyou tebeh'..phonetically and I believe means 'I love you'? "People never do evil so throughly and happily as when they do it from moral conviction."-Blaise Pascal
I learned Spanish the hard way via gov't tapes. It was more thorough but far, far too rigid and what you really want in a language is to feel like speaking it is no chore.
