I have tried the Pimsler Polish CDs and they are okay however I can not find a CD that teaches the basics. i.e. numbers, days, colors... If anyone knows of a better way of learning Polish please let me know. Thank you!

Polish is a tough language to learn because of some massive lexical restructuring that has occurred since its origin in Proto-Western Slavic. Pimsleur is a good start on conversational Polish, but Polish is a language that you must take slowly if you are a native speaker of English. I've found that combining Pimsleur with the book and CDs of "Teach Yourself Polish" and a good Polish grammar (I use "Polish: An Essential Grammar" and "301 Polish Verbs") makes a good combination of resources. Oh, and fork over the $150 for the Oxford Polish-English English-Polish dictionary set. It is worth every single penny because it is filled with examples of usage for every single word. I really use it a whole lot.

For things like Numbers, Days, Colors, there's a site that I came across a while ago randomly, here it is. Good luck with studying it, I myself speak Bosnian, a little bit similar to Polish, a slavic language. :)

Just look for Polish.

Check this out as well, an artificial slavic language that is mutually understandable by all slavic language speakers.

Go to your local bookstore and buy a Polish/English dictionary, as well as a Polish grammar book. Probably they'll have other useful materials there you can use to advance your knowlege of Polish.

Its in no way a WASTE OF TIME once you like to study something . and not all and sundry is born with in-outfitted expertise . They inherit it (i.e., they study it) . we can do or study something with some dedication , some interest and little hardwork . triumphing isn't significant , purely taking part in the interest (Participation) is significant . So , what i'm attempting to tell you is , merely choose for IT . Dont think of approximately something , jus go on . Jus do it . all the perfect !

Rosetta Stone sells a bunch of language learning systems for your PC. I've never used their products but they are supposed to be pretty good. They use the immersion approach. It is a pretty expensive system though.
