Re: Best way to learn languages when you aren't in college anymore?

Duolingo! I think they've gotten Norwegian on there now for English speakers.

Can't help you with Latin or Old Norse, other than the fact that you might want to look at Icelandic as that is the closest you're going to get to it with languages that are still in use. Norwegian may help you there as well, though Icelandic is much closer.

I actually stumbled upon an Icelandic resource on Reddit just so. I'm on my iPad, so I haven't check it out myself (as copying links are a pain in the ass sometimes):


The University of Reykjavik offers a free full Icelandic language course on their site, if anyone's interested in trying to learn! The structure is very simple and easy to pick up. Granted, I haven't made it terribly far, but it's a great resource.

Thanks for the rec, I've started Norwegian on Duolingo! As a free program it's awesome... though I'm having some trouble understanding the Robot voice, especially when I'm trying to learn how to pronounce sounds or sound natural. But it's definitely better than nothing!

I did figure that Icelandic was the best way to go for Old Norse, but there just seem to be so few opportunities to learn it because it's such a... tiny? language.
