Thing #4 The Online library

I recently spent some time on the Rosetta Stone resource. I am planning a trip to Paris in March and would like to learn some basic French. I spent years taking Spanish in school and can barely ask where the bathroom is but I am determined to master some important key phrases! I was surprised by the way the lessons are set up in the program. There is essentially no English. It was/is a bit intimidating but I think, overall, it makes the lessons easier to keep and build upon. I am still struggling through but I am confident that as long as I keep with it, I should be able to learn some basics over the next few months. My sister, who is traveling with me, is also working with the Rosetta Stone program. She says that she can read and pronounce the names and places better just because of the program and learning the different fluctuations (is that the right word???) of the language. I have already recommended this program to every patron that comes in looking for French and Spanish language tapes and books.
