Foreign
Language Resources on the Web
This resource list, by no means comprehensive (hundreds of fresh
WWW pages are appearing each month), aspires to lend starting points
for mining the WWW for foreign language/culture specific resources.
This is a "quality-only" index. In other words, we have
sought to include only the best of the foreign language ("foreign"
for native speakers of English) Web sites out of the many that exist.
