Mango Languages

In this discovery, I took a look at Mango Language at the South Dakota Library Website. This database offers info and lessons about different languages. The language that I looked up was spanish. It's like taking a trip without having to spend any money, book a flight - how fun is that? It shows you how to talk, enjoy the food and culture before going on an actual trip - if you want. What a great preplanner to your trip!!! It was fun to learn about things that I may not see myself having the opportunity to learn. Mango Langauges site offers an insight on the possibilities to understand different cultures and languages. Patrons will enjoy these travel prerequisites!!! Learning to greet people, practice ahead of time, get pointers and generally prepare you for future travels - if the opportunity presents itself! Making time to look and understand could be an issue.

  1. Mango is great for learning all the tips you mentioned prior to going to a foreign country. Another idea we've heard about is using it for foreign language clubs in after school groups. Thanks for your post -Julie
