Re: The Languages We Speak (none / 1)
As Ben P says down in this thread, try Pimsleur.  The Spanish section is quite extensive and it WORKS.  It got my foot in the door for Romanian that's for sure.

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.
