Non-English ebooks
Hi all
I've been looking at this forum for a long time, decided to finally post. I was wondering if anyone could help me in finding unpaid ebooks, prefereably in French and German (something easy to read, even children's books are ok). I would really like to see how good the translation dictionaries are. I did try looking for some, but I just realized how much English has encompassed all internet media. |

Try Project Gutenberg (www.gutenberg.org). They have lots of books in French and German.
We have a fair few here at MR. |

There are many free public domain works in various languages over at Project Gutenberg and other such repositories.
Someone else asked about free public domain German e-books in another forum recently, and many of the site links should also be applicable for free French e-books as well. Hope this helps, and welcome to MobileRead! |
