i used rosetta stone before and didnt learn shit because hebrew is my first language so i need a program thats hebrew to whatever language i want to learn


Wouldn't get my hopes up too high... especially if you want to learn a relatively exotic language.

Just one question. Why hindi?

so i speak fluent hebrew, a little arabic but i can read most of it, a little spanish and somewhat fluent english and i want to learn hindi and was wondering if it will be easier to learn because of any of the languages i know or if there is a way i can get a immersion software that teaches from hebrew to hindi


Amazing how nobody actually read the topic...

By the way the only immersion that works is going to the country where a given language is spoken, finding some roommates who don't speak any foreign languages and staying there for half a year or more. You'll be fluent before you know it x)

Good luck finding software for that. I would be genuinely surprised to find Rosetta Stone, or any other software for that matter, that goes from Hebrew to Hindi. I can say you're almost certain NOT to find that sort of thing on any U.S website or store.

Too bad you don't live in Colorado... I work in a foreign langauge company; could get you discount lessons. smile.gif. Well....maybe not. Lol.

Hey if you've got relatives in Israel you should ask them to shop for you... I'm sure you can get an introductury course but it'll be hard once you get past intermediate/upper intermediate.

rosetta stone should work, i dont know why it wouldnt. my rosetta stone doesnt have a word of english in it. it just shows me pictures and tells me how to pronounce the word. anyone with any language can use my rosetta stone to learn japanese.

Not sure why you'd need to know english to use rosetta stone... I checked it out at one point and although I didn't continue with it (got too busy with other stuff...) it was mainly a matter of hearing, connecting the sounds to pictures/concepts, and eventually repeating...

It really shouldn't be necessary to learn hindi though; many indians do know some english and money is the most widely-spoken language in the world, hehe. If it were me, I'd take an introductory class if I could find one... and failing that I'd try rosetta stone to get a feel for the language a bit (check for torrents?) and then pick more up as I needed it.
