I have been living in bliss since discovering the FSI website. Thank you to all contributors who find the time and skills to scan and publish language textbooks - and audio - for us to enjoy.
One question, probably a silly one for one more computer savvy than I: I would like to monitor my own pronunciation when repeating audio words and  phrases. Am presently busy with Cambodian and if there ever was a tongue twister (along with some other S-E Asian languages, granted!), this is it!
Well, how do I get about to hear the sound of my own voice through a microphone over my computer's loudspeakers or earphones, when listening to audio files?
 
Also, I recently became aware of the existence of a "universal" language, Slavio, purported to be the counterpart to Esperanto in regard to Slavic languages.  Has any among you approached it? What do you think of it?
 
Any hint will be appreciated. Thank you in advance.

don't know how to do it - yet - but some software versions of languages let u practice, and they give u feedback of your progress.  Interesting about Slavio, will have to look it up

regards,
Brian
