I think this http://fsi-language-courses.org/Content.php is what you're looking for. The website's home page starts out as follows: "Welcome to fsi-language-courses.org - the home for language courses developed by the Foreign Service Institute. "These courses were developed by the United States government and are in the public domain. "This site is dedicated to making these language courses freely available in an electronic format. This site is not affiliated in any way with any government entity; it is an independent, non-profit effort to foster the learning of worldwide languages. Courses here are made available through the private efforts of individuals who are donating their time and resources to provide quality materials for language learning." (Found it easily via Bing, my preferred search engine.) |

It is the "Foreign Service Institute Language Course." It has audio and course material for hundreds (?) of languages. Am going to France this fall and wanted to learn some phrases. It is/was a very good site and I believe it was maintained by retired FS folks. |

Richard, The only related web site I'm familiar with is www.foreignlanguageinstitute.com . They deal with intellectual property translation services for the legal profession. Happy travels! |

Had this site bookmarked and just found that I was unable to access. Error. Does anyone know if it is still active? |
