I'm a visual learner, so the book would suit me. I'm so glad the software is helpful. Good luck with your studies.

If I could learn by hearing, I'd be fluent in Afrikaans by now as I've worked in an Afrikaans environment, but I only understand a few phrases.<br /><br />All the best with the Portuguese, I'm glad you've found a method that works for you.Ruth Ann Dellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00109021171045138359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4620199782689299940.post-62142484179656900122010-10-18T08:58:34.491-07:002010-10-18T08:58:34.491-07:00Write it down.
