Language / How to learn Polish ASAP? (speaking is my priority) [22]
I married a polish man and am constantly around family members speaking polish - just being around it hasn't helped me learn! I got cd's from the library which helped, but it did nothing for reading/writing. I finally shelled out the money to purchase Rosetta Stone software which is a great help! It uses pictures, words, and pronunciation so you learn to speak and read at the same time.
As a native english speaker who has taken both spanish and german lessons, polish is much, much harder! I have a difficult time remembering the letter combinations and the sounds are unnatural for me. But, I am determined to learn!
