It was one of my rare politically correct moments. Thank the ex machina gods for it and ask no more... :))

I prefer the creative side.
For the Greek team I could also suggest this:

Oh, yes!
I do hope we are not destroying the thread. I truly like the idea of culturally oriented TACs.

I hope so, too. But let's not forget you were one of TAC 2013's acquisitions. And look at you now.
We are very lucky if we get a handful of people like you to come aboard every year.
That entitles you to a little rambling, in my humble opinion.

If-by miracle-there's a dedicated Persian team or even one for Iranian languages (Kurdish, Pahsto, anyone?) I'd love to join that. Maybe also a rare languages team, it depends on what everyone else would be studying. |

I'd also love to join such a team if one is created. Persian is my number one priority language this year, aside from Mandarin (which I study at university), and I'd be interested in learning about other Iranian languages if there is anyone who studies them. |

Great to see that you're back and not giving up on Persian! If no other Persian/Kurdish/Pashto/... enthusiasts show up, would you be interested in doing a Persian tandem? I'm serious about studying it this year and would love to have someone on HTLAL to share the journey with for added motivation :)

to be on the German team. My current level is B2-C1 and I'd like to improve it.

Good! Anyone else for Korean? |

TheRealCZ, maybe? I'd also ask Tarko, who is keeping a Korean log. yuhakko might be interested, even if Korean is only one of the many Asian languages he's studying. Haksaeng is also studying Korean, but hasn't posted in a while - hope she returns soon. Maybe there will be more people registering, too...? I think a Korean team would work pretty well, even if we're only a few people. There's already a solid group who are logging regularly. The cool thing with being a Korean-focused team is that we could practice writing on the team thread...

I read a few of the threads and, sad to admit, I'm still not entirely sure what this thing is. I take it the goal is to do something in a year, but I'm not sure what. Learn as much possible? Starting from scratch, or from any knowledge level? And we do this on teams? Are there winners? How do we decide?
