I actually came across this reading the Buffalo News this weekend (old fashioned style reading). In the Money Matters section they had a short article from MarketWatch.com titled 'Get Free Language Lessons'.
I checked out the website that they referenced and was quite impressed. It is a self-paced system (I sure can't commit to it daily...but once a week...maybe). You can take a test for it to gauge what level lesson you should start at; or for someone like myself (who took Latin in highschool) just start at the beginner level. The beginner level has some nice activities to get you going. There are also 'crash courses' if you're hopping on the plane tomorrow. You can even download popular phrases to your mp3 player. There are a wide variety of languages including:
- French
- Spanish
- German
- Italian
- Chinese
- Portugese
- Greek
- more...
