you in spoken or written French. In order to hear the audio, you need Netscape 2.0 and the
Voxware "plug-in" for Netscape. (According to Toolvox, Internet Explorer 3.0
will work too). By clicking on these links, you will open a SECOND WINDOW. This one will
remain available at all times, even though you may not see it.Hungarian
Language Course
Hungarian is an agglutinative language, meaning that it relies heavily on suffixes and
prefixes. The grammar is seemingly complex, yet there is no gender, a feature that most
English speakers grapple with when learning other European languages. Hungarian does use
the Roman alphabet however, and after learning a few simple rules one can easily read
Hungarian. Pronunciation is also very easy, especially compared to other neighboring
languages like Czech, German, and Russian.
A
Swedish Language Course
This course was designed for beginners and no previous knowledge of Swedish is assumed.
Swedish is a relatively easy language for English speakers to learn. Pronunciation is a
little difficult at first, especially due to the vowels, and a beginner should listen to a
native in order to get a good idea of the Swedish sounds.
