I'll be traveling from the U.S. to the Dominican Republic for the first time next month. I'd like to learn some basic Spanish phrases, etc in order to communicate with those who do not speak English. What is the best resource online or offline to pick up a little Spanish in such a brief time? Thanks in advance for any information.

Carlton...When you arrive here next month the two (2) most important phrases to know. Gracias (thank you) Por favor (Please). With these you shoyuld do all right as many Dominioan speak english well enough for you to get along till you get to know 1. Cerveza (beer) 2. Ron (rum) 3. la cuenta (the check)

Don't worry. The Dominican people are very nice and patient with any attempt to speak Spanish. I study Spanish (teaching major) and was terrified to speak in front of native speakers. I could not have asked for a better confidence builder than to speak in front of and with Dominican people! They were so appreciative and helpful when I forgot a word or two. Enjoy your trip! Oh, buy a small travel dictionary and take a small pad of post-its to earmark important pages. Study on the plane and you will do just fine. :)
