How to learn languages with non-Latin alphabets?
jdowdell: The alphabet is a separate problem from learning a language. I can "sorta" learn it in a session, but then find I haven't retained it well. Two tricks:1)  Print out the alphabet and hang it in the bathroom, at eye level. But after a time it becomes invisible.2)  Flash cards with words that contain the letters you know least. This is a great way to burn things in across sessions. Write each word yourself, so you'll be embarrassed when you can't remember it.Computer programs like Rosetta Stone are useful for audio/visual testing of a new language. I'm not sure how they handle the input of a strange language, but Rosetta Stone helped me with Korea's Hangul even though I couldn't type it.
