For most of us, learning a second language in high school or college wasn't exactly the high point of your academic career.

0:07.4

Maybe you took a language because you had to take a language.

0:10.4

Maybe you took a language that you didn't want to take because all of the other languages were full.

0:15.8

Maybe you took it just to get by and you don't remember a damn thing.

0:19.4

0:27.4

I think you needed a C plus average.

1:13.4

Bethany and I are both brushing up on our French.

1:16.4

Nailing it, by the way.

1:17.6

Because it's just inevitable that we're going to become expats living in Paris eventually.

1:22.2

Yeah. When we get pushed out of the US and there are so many ways to learn with Babel.

1:26.6

They have the lessons plus you can access podcasts, games, video stories, even live classes.

1:33.0

See, Vou Play.

1:34.2

And they have 14 different languages like Spanish, French, Italian and German.
