Its a good idea. Say that we can help if you need help with homework or just want to improve your language. Thanks.

Joe, we've got a few problems. Katkodl has gone awol from the language thing due to...a number of things which I wont go into. I dont know where susanne is...so thats the german dept a bit koofed.
I dont know about french and spanish. I imagine that theyll pick up once youve got yourself sorted.
Mandarin...well Im not sure really.
No English dept was wanted.
ermmm...yeah. My creation seems to be falling apart....after youve done so much!

It's not falling apart!

I said I'd go for a huge publicity drive, and I will, as soon as I'm back. Soon. Probably. Hopefully. Whatever

your as a link on my thing now

luv angelface04

Ooh, ta muchly

But you're very good company.

U-number: 929375
WLTL:
WLTP: Latin
WLTT: Latin
Anything else:
I assume one CAN talk Latin, even though it's alleged to be a 'dead language'. Some people seem to be divided on that matter.

My friend Jesse can talk Latin... but he hasn't been on MSN in ages... I wonder if something happened to him. *frowns*

Oh! Newsflash! In the back of my Mandarin textbook, it says Putonghua (did I spell that right?) IS what Enoha (I think it was Enoha...) was saying!! YAY!!! I learnt something new!! Now, to return to studying for that chinese essay we have to write in characters with no help from acheat sheet or anything... (Although it's a really boring essay, it's all about what time you get up and stuff, but it's still HARD!!)

Hi echomikeromeo!

Sorry you didn't get a reply sooner, we're going through some hectic changes at the moment (owing in part to the fact that I don't have an Internet connection), but hopefully Kat will be around somewhere to give you a proper welcome and point you in the right direction.

Yes, one can speak Latin - I have a GCSE in it, and it's not easy, but it's do-able. There seems to be a growing demand for it here, so I am intending to do something about that, maybe teach a little bit, when I get Internet at home. Meanwhile, feel free to wander around until you find something you like, and please please please join in!

Hey echomikeromeo, sorry we haven't been around properly.

I'll be getting up a Latin dept as soon as possible. Currently we're trying to work out how to make the place as user friendly as possible, as we are aware that its a bit complicated right now.

In the meantime what about joining in something else? Right at the minute the German dept is the most active. If you can't speak any German there's beginners threads which we all use and we all get a chance to be stupid and mess around.

If you can speak French or Spanish at all then do go and get stuck in in those Depts. I know they aren't very active at the minute, but we will be getting them up and running asap, and if you're willing to hang around you might be able to spark them up. In the meantime, subscribe to things and I'll let you know when I've got a Latin dept going.

*jumps up and down* MANDARIN!!!! I'm lonely...

Ok, I'll try to do some Mandarin with you so you're not lonely, but I suck at Mandarin.

Hello all, just seen that there's some revival of the language threads BTW : Yes, one can speak Latin - I have a GCSE in it, and it's not easy, but it's do-able. There seems to be a growing demand for it here, so I am intending to do something about that, maybe teach a little bit, when I get Internet at home. Meanwhile, feel free to wander around until you find something you like, and please please please join in! Joe C There is a latin thread, but it's sleeping, you can find it here : http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/brunel/F135249?thread=321322&latest=1 Bel

*pounces on Latin thread*

Right! As *coughs* the most important person around here Im going to get a latin forum started as of next week. Ill trawl through that thread and see who's around and see whats what....I cant run it however because I never did Latin...so anyone who might like to...

U-number: U186740
WLTL: French, Mandarin, German
WLTP: Spanish
WLTT: English, Spanish (very very beginning level)
Anything else: It's been years since I've taken a Spanish class, so I'm probably really rusty, especially with anything outside of present or imperative tense. But I'm willing to try!

Heya!

Welcome, Ill put you on the various lists in a minute. Could I ask what your mother tongue is please?

Don't forget to subscribe to any threads that you want to take part in and subscribe to the article for new threads, games and announcements.

Thanks for joining

English, though I know bits and pieces of other languages. Nothing substantial, but bits and pieces!

Okee...I set you free on the departments! fly fly!! oh and speak go introduce yourself. Admittedly right now the only dept properly active is the German dept because Joe C isn't around and wont be for a while and he runs the french and spanish depts because I dont speak any, but go introduce yourself there too
