So far I have scored highest in Spanish, Norwegian (surprisingly!) and German
I have thought about moving to the first two... so maybe one of them
I tried Swedish but it seemed more difficult

No sense just learning a language because it's easy - learn one that will be useful eg. for holidays.
I don't use "apps" and I don't own an iPhone, but I wouldn't mind a German tutorial. I used to be able to get by OK in German, but I've forgotten most of it.
I think you can do similar on their website too?

Ten years ago tried to start a Deutsches Verein here, but only three interested. Trouble is, practice makes perfect.
With French, for about a year, a friend and I exchanges text messages via our mobiles, but that fizzled out.
Nice one Dobra! How long did you use it for?
