Learning A New Language...

A friend of mine convinced me I needed to learn his language. He speaks Dutch and I wondered how hard could this be? So I looked around and found some free software to help me out. 

I have come to realize that the sound they make in their throat is harder than it seems. I sound like a cat with a hair ball stuck in it's throat. Mind you I have only been at this for a day but the results are pretty funny. I will actually be amazed if I can master this. 

I also want to learn Spanish because I live in a largely Hispanic area and that would help me find better work if I could speak it.  

Still it will be interesting for me to see how fast I can learn this and if I can master that sound.
