Language / Best learning Polish CD/DVD set? [11]

Thread attached on merging:
learning polish

From what I've seen and heard, Polish is insanely hard to learn. has anyone learned it(obviosly not primarily from their parents) and could steer me in the right direction of how to really get going on it? I have already gotten BYKI and The Rosetta Stone to help learn it, but they are both very limited programs.(neither goes over the alphabet, sounds or grammar at all.) I found a useful page for the alphabet and the sounds and usage of letters but I sure there will be a point when it will be about learning the grammar. I plan to search for pen pals once I know enough to be able to write an email about basic things. Are there links about grammar usage and whatnot? Also if someone knows a more useful program, please let me know. I'm new enough at it to where what I have is still helpful, I'd just like to plan ahead. And at planing ahead, is it normal for a plane trip to cost $1000 from the U.S. to Poland round trip? Thanks for all the help,

Patrick

Life / Polish Parents are controlling [58]


I'm with you, my mom and I didn't agree on anything when i was a teenager, but i think it would be hard for anyone to pick out anyone who is agreeable with their parent/child when the kid is a teenager.


I do that to my mom now but she knows that I'm just playing around with her. It would be weird being serious about that.

Life / Perfekt music group [17]

any harder rock groups? I'm not exactly looking for death metal or that kind of thing but just harder edged rock music similar to Godsmack.(please with polish lyrics, I intend to attempt to "decode" what is being said :-))
