Hey, the best way to start with a new language is to take some sessions with a teacher if you are beginner. If there is no German teacher in your place try " Rosetta Stone" or "Tell me more German". It will help you through the first step; then you may find someone to exchange languages. Hey you can use "Rosetta Stone" even for your Hindi. You can buy it from the market. You alse need to take a look at www.livemocha.com to find some free courses of German. Have a great time with learning languages. ;)
