Title: Extremely basic
Review: I don't know if you've ever tried any of the other Pimsleur tapes - but I find them to be dreadfully monotonous and extremely basic. I have been studying Russian for several years and had the misfortune to listen to their Russian tape. It practically sent me screaming out of the room. It spent 30 minutes going over the dialogue that is usually covered by page one of a standard Russian textbook. If you expect to have an elementary-level conversation with a Lithuanian parrot - then this course might be the one for you!No, seriously, if you want to work on basic pronounciation and rudimentary listening skills (listening to people with waaaay above average pronounciation skills) - then go ahead and buy the tapes. But you'll be stuck using the very basic phrases that they teach you. Without an understanding of Lithuanian grammar, you won't be able to come up with phrases on your own.
