Hi All,
If you ever thought of learning basic Portuguese Dick Eastman's news letter has a article about a free course on line. It is published by the state department and has been used for a number of years. I looked at the Italian program and it is the same one I took when I was in Italy in 1977. Even today I can still remember a lot of it. There is one for Portuguese which includes audio tapes. You can read the article at the link below. http://blog.eogn.com/eastmans_online_genealogy/2009/12/free-foreign-lang uage-courses.html Richard Francis Pimentel Epping, New Hampshire, USA Researching Bretanha, Ribeirinha, Ribeira Grande, Achade Grande, and Ponta Delgada, Sao Miguel, Acores for, Pimentel (Costa), Carvalho, Teixeira, Rocha -- To unsubscribe from this group, send email to azores+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com.
