Hi,
        I am totally ignorant of Basque, but would like to learn some. I speak
very little Spanish, and would basically have to learn Spanish first to use
spanish languague materials. What I would like to end up doing is being able
to speak simple Basque (Basque for tourists would be about right). I'm not a
linguist, and do not wish to learn comparative grammar. I speak English, Irish
and French well, and German passably, and could use materials in any of these
languagues. I also have a tin ear, and would definitely need cassettes of the
languague. Pointers to radio programmes in simple Basque, if such exist,
would also be valued.
        Please reply to me at the above e-mail address, and accept my gratitude
for any help in advance.
        Ta,
          Anthony Staines.
