Best LEARN-POLISH SOFTWARE?

I am willing to spend at the most $100 (but preferably NOT that much) on software to learn polish. now im not saying I need to speak it fluently. i just would like to learn as much as possible in as little time as possible. its just my best friend speaks both polish and english fluently and i would like to know enough to converse with him and his family in polish every once in a while! it would be a total dream come true. so yeah any help would be appreciated, mostly if you%26#039;ve found a particular polish software you%26#039;ve tried to be successful or know someone that has. THANKS!!!

Best LEARN-POLISH SOFTWARE?
In general, the best language software for beginners that I%26#039;ve found is by Topics Entertainment. You used to be able to get a lot of their elementary-level CDs for $10 at Best Buy, but they recently jacked a lot of the prices up to $20-30.





The good news is that they make an awesome %26quot;Instant Immersion: Polish%26quot; CD-ROM. The bad news is that I%26#039;m pretty sure that it%26#039;s not available for sale by itself in America. However, you can still get a copy! It%26#039;s one of the 33 CDs included in the %26quot;Instant Immersion: 33 Languages%26quot; kit. I was able to buy the Polish CD by itself from someone on eBay, and I%26#039;ve been using it for 2 years now. However, the entire kit is available on Amazon for $35 plus shipping... that%26#039;s not even $2 a CD for 33 really good language CDs!

Topics Entertainment recently started selling %26quot;Instant Immersion 33 Languages Deluxe Version 2.0%26quot; for $40, but I don%26#039;t know if the Polish program included in it is the same as the one included in the original. If I were you, I%26#039;d stick with the original.





%26quot;Instant Immersion: Polish%26quot; won%26#039;t teach you Polish grammar, but you%26#039;d have a hard time learning that from any CD. Polish has been ranked in the top 10 most difficult foreign languages for native speakers of English to learn, and it%26#039;s because of the grammar. However, %26quot;Instant Immersion: Polish%26quot; will teach you useful everyday vocabulary (food, clothes, colors, numbers, common objects, travel-related words, etc).





With the program, the first step is to pick a vocab list and go through it. You%26#039;ll see the words in Polish and English, see a picture of what each word means, and can hear it read by two different people (one man, one woman) and at two different speeds (regular, slow). Then, there are a bunch of little quizzes you can take to test yourself. You rack up points by taking quizzes, and there%26#039;s a scoreboard that shows how many points you%26#039;ve earned overall.





If you want to save money, byki.com has a free demo of their Polish program that%26#039;s actually beneficial. I have it on my home computer. I%26#039;m not sure the full program version would be worth what they charge for it, though. It seems overpriced.
Reply:ultimate Polish i learned Arabic from the company its very good and it comes with CD%26#039;s for the computer and a book to write and follow along i think it was like $ 115 dollars? but that is about as good as its gonna get especially for this company and you can find it in Bordersor most book stores
