I'm curious about Rosetta as well. I'd like to learn Spanish. I think the library has it, might look into it.

I have a different take on this - so many urdu words are used in everyday Hindi that the line is kind of blurred. I feel Indian Hindi is like Linux - it borrows words fro everywhere and makes a nice Aviyal.

Most Americans appear to know French - at least based on the oft-used phrase "Pardon my French"

Mandarin grammar and sentence structures are much more easier than most of European languages. The most difficult part is not being able to read it, as we more or less can read french, spanish or italian and can have mental images of the words, making them easier to learn.
