I use Transparent Language's 101 Languages of the World. I found it in the bargain bin at CompUSA in the mid 1990's. It has since become one of my favorite programs. While not designed to give you complete fluency in any one language, it does provide a thorough introduction to a wide variety of languages.
Rosetta Stone
Rosetta Stone is one of the most well known brands of language learning programs.

A good synoynm for hyperlinguistics might be Rapid Diction. Check it out.
Omnilinguistic
How fast can a language be learned? Hmm... In a day? Is it possible to become omnilinguistic?
I use a computer program called Languages of The World. It has 101 languages you can learn. I am fluent in English and Spanish. I can pretty easily read Italian, French, and Portuguese, as these are the main languages I work with. Russian is also a favorite of mine.
Check out this list of English words that end in -ation, as well as their Spanish counterparts.lingolex.com
A nice guide to Chinese pronunciation from olimu.com
