What's the best "teach yourself a foreign language" series?

Well i bought the "French for Dummies" book which comes with a CD-Rom, but you can't exactly read the book while you're in the car.  But I would recommend it cause I learned A LOT of French and was able to carry out conversatoins with people when I visited France.

You shouldn't rely on one source to learn a language because they might have different points of view on things. I suggest that you use books, software, videos, and cassettes/ CDs to help you. Also, the Rosetta Stone one is pretty good and I think is worth it. It's up to you to decide.

hi,\nMy answer depends upon what skills you already have in these languages?\nif you are a beginnner; then the dummies series is good for all, i.e C++ for dummies. by indian author 'Let us C' is also good.\nIf you have a time line in mind then try: 'SAMS teach yourself in 21 days series', they have books on all languages.\nlet me know where you live, i'll give the nearest good bookstore address. if not then you can always try at BpB publication oultet in C.P or Nehru plc.\nTC,\nkaran

I personally reccomend the Rosetta Stone language education software. It's specifically designed to teach people fast. My father was at conversational italian after an hour a day for six months, and was reading and writing it by the end of the year. I'm going to get a copy before I go to Japan. It comes in almost every language, too.

the ones that come with a cd or dvd you can listen to also,also a great way to help learn the foundations of any language is to purchase the items used to teach the foundation of language to natives- baby books and videos , it works

English - Mother Tongue\nPortuguese - Second language (fluent - taught myself)\nSpanish - Third language (semi fluent - taught myself)\n\nItalian - Fourth Language (I'm strong in reading, although writing, listening and speaking need help - 6 month class and self study) \n\nI don't see myself learning any more than this, although I know some basics of French, Catalan and Russian in decending order.\n\nPortuguese will always be my favorite though and will always be the sweetest sounding.

You can do a small free trial at www.rosettastone.com.  It uses a visual technique that doesn't involve translation that they claim is more natural.  It's kinda fun too.  $45/month I think for unlimited usage per language.  Japanese is one of the choices.
