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.

I reactivated my German by buying translations of some of my favorite novels. That way, I know the stories well enough to gather meaning from context instead of having to resort to a dictionayr every other sentence.

That's a great idea.
