POPSReactivating Forgotten Languages: How to Catch Up Vis-Ed (www.vis-ed.com) compiles its sets of flashcards from word frequency lists and includes sample phrases for usage. I begin flashcards after three or four days in-country. The sooner you decide to reactivate languages when needed, instead of maintaining them for an unspecified time in the future, the more leisure time you will have and the less diluted your language abilities will be when you need them. Don't fear losing languages if you've attained real fluency. They're just in temporary storage with the covers pulled over them.

POPSLearn to speak Italian I practiced along with this podcast in preparation for a trip to Italy. I am not yet fluent, however, learning key phrases helped me to communicate with Italians whom I found were very forgiving when I mangled their language. In fact, my attempts were often appreciated. The podcast hosts are native Italians.
