Have you checked the internet for "Pali language course"? Accesstoinsight.org has a "Guide" to learning Pali, and there are other listings.

Vincenzi

what I have found is the Pali Tipitaka in pali (romanized, in devanagari and in other scripts).

Pimsleur is excellent for learning a foreign language. It's not as expensive as Rosetta, and I think you can test it out on youtube. Try it out before you buy it. I was learning Japanese super fast, but now I would like to learn korean too.

@Malachy12

Pali is not a language supported by Pimsleur or Rosetta.

Malachy12

darn then, Pimsleur has been expanding lately to cover tons of languages.

Vincenzi

the point of the thread is that Pali is taught in few countries (and websites).

There are many Pali language courses available online. Do a search, as Dakini suggested, for "Pali language course" and you'll find many choices:

www.accesstoinsight.org/lib/author/bullitt/learningpali.html

www.bodhimonastery.net/bm/programs/pali-class-online.html

www.pali.pratyeka.org

www.urbandharma.org/udharma4/pali.html

etc. We can help you, Vincenzi, but you have to be willing to help yourself. You could have looked this up yourself.

@compassionate_warrior

yes, but someone may have tested already a course and can recommend one.
