Of course!

French - currently my knowledge and understanding is advanced (C1 probably) but my speaking fluency and accent still need some work, so my goal is to improve these.
Italian - beginner to conversational.

They're the definites. I might also pick up some Spanish later on in the year but that very much depends on how much progress I make on the others, and since it's difficult to predict how my life's going to go for the next year it's hard to estimate how much time, opportunity, or desire I'll have for working on my languages.

Say what you like about me "cheating" with all these very similar Romance languages; guess it's just a happy coincidence that the three languages that interest me most all happen to have a lot in common!

I would like to join a team for TAC 2012.

I have been participating in the 6WC for the first time and it has been a great source of motivation for me and would love to keep the momentum going.

My target language is Spanish at a beginner level. I want to be conversational by the end of next year. I am considering Italian or French as well depending on my schedule.

awww Italian and Croatian will probably be the ones I focus on from their groups:)


My main languages focus would be Hungarian and Italian. Hungarian, because I still love this language and will probably never quit it (or entirely :)), and Italian because my job requires it... soon.

Croatian, because the book I work with is really good and I really like it. But I don't think that after july I will have the opportunity to really speak it with someone... and I don't really have the utility for it. So it's really for the fun :).

To answer your question : yes, I'd like. But it would be nice if I had Hribecek as a language partner, he was really nice and supportive. Guess he will study Czech, Spanish and Hungarian, but that's up to him if he will join this year's TAC.

isn't the tandem/partners thing different from TAC? of course you can be language partners regardless of what teams you're in, and of course Hribecek is very welcome to join the team as well!

I meant that we are forming a team together and since the others seems to have left, I refered to him as a partner.

Would anyone be interested in joining a Finno-Ugric team? If not, I'll happily plow along as a lone wolf as I have so far.

Have you joined a team yet, a3?

I'd most likely stick with Finnish and Northern Saami while Hungarian is an additional option. I'm not sure yet how to allocate the time for study in the new year.

Is there anyone else wanting to sign up for a Finno-Ugric team? Hribecek? Kisfröccs? DaraghM? Kafea?
