Helped my in-laws It helped my in-laws a little bit. It's a good start and those on the other end of the communication appreciate the effort.
Pimsleur Quick & Simple Brazilian Portuguese This is a very easy way to learn some basic Portuguese......no note-taking or written words. Just listen and learn how to form simple sentences and get the accent right. The repetition is a tremendous help, too. I've never studied other languages formally, but this makes me want to learn more! I plan to purchase the next set of CD's before my trip to Brazil this Christmas. I've learned most of these 8 lessons in about 6 weeks and I'm 65 years old! Pat from Oklahoma
You say tomato, I say buy it People learn languages in different ways so a variety of reviews is to be expected. I find these tapes ideal, especially for learning pronunciation and basic communication skills. Accent and basic vocabulary proficiency are my goals, they are the base on which I'll add spelling and grammar later. On the street I'll be able to trick people into thinking I'm fluent and will be able to communicate better than someone with years of classroom training. If you want to read the classics or pass a written test buy a book, if you want to speak listen carefully and repeat.
It works The pimsleur method works -- you listen and repeat, and automatically learn. I wish they didn't spend so much time on the formal usage for 'you' since I understand that this is not used very much in real life -- that's why I gave it a 4 instead of a 5.
Perfect for the tourist I purchased the Brazilian Prtuguese CD for my daughter for an upcoming trip. She uploaded it onto her iPod and has been practicing in her free time. She likes this series a lot because it's conversational, allows her to reply, and doesn't advance too slowly. She hears how the words are supposed to be pronounced. She's interested in getting the Spanish series to supplement her high school courses.
