The Language Situation scenes are supposed to complement any regular language course by providing a sort of language 'street experience'.
You can see 'real' people talking their 'real' language. They are all quite taken by surprise in this unusual situation (somebody asking silly questions) and they react very spontaneously.
Through the many repetitions it is also helpful to remember some most common phrases.
The Language Situation Videos are produced by the Media Workshop at Schiller High School in Muenster/Germany. (less)

Polish Lessons -- Unit 21
Produced By:
magauchsein on 11 Oct 2007
Category: Language
Description: My plan is to produce one short video (more...) for every letter and every sound of the Polish Language.
At the end there will be approximately 45 videos, every one of them containing 17 words.
So theoretically somebody, who would spend 45 minutes watching all of them, would have at least a swift contact with 765 Polish words (mainly substantives)
There is a myth that the Polish Language is one of the most difficult to learn. I don't believe it anymore after meeting and speaking to a lot of students who after learning Polish for six months or so - mastered this language to a remarkable degree.
My theory is that the Polish Language appears very difficult at the beginning but after somebody manages to reach a certain point of knowledge - this language becomes unexpectedly easy to speak - because obviously it is a very intuitive and 'judge by the ear' language.
After reaching a certain point you just know how to say it (how to decline and so) because it seems to sound either good or not.
So this is why I think, that anybody who would like to learn Polish should invest quite an ample time to 'get used' to it.
Those 45 minutes of the Polish alphabet are supposed to be the first introduction to this foreign language. It should help to understand how Polish should be pronounced as well as to learn some first Polish words.
It should give you the general idea of how the Polish language sounds like.
In the next level we will deal with most common verbs. We will look at how they sound and function.
I dedicate this course to Carina and Manuel who are trying to learn Polish. I hope I can help you. You can imagine how happy I would be to speak Polish with you. (less)

Song Five Little Monkeys Jumping on the Bed - Cullen
Produced By:
cullensabcs on 13 Mar 2007
Category: Preschool & Kindergarten
Description: Singing songs with your child is (more...) wonderful for many reasons. The most important reason is that singing is it is fun and children love to sing. Songs are great for increasing vocabulary and pronunciation. Using hand and body movements with songs and rhymes helps preschoolers learn to control their bodies. There is even research that has shown that children who are actively involved in music do better in reading and math when they start school, are better able to focus and control their bodies, play better with others and have higher self-esteem. So sing a song now!
