Seriously, Jaynie, I have to admit I was TOTALLY clueless about how this whole thing was constructed until you wrote this. THANK YOU!!!! Feeling rather stupid, I was going to hang back and "watch" so that I could possibly participate in the next year's...but now that I "get it" *duuuhhh* Here goes.... Laura Marks German (possibly B1, not sure) Spanish will be getting back to in a year So I would like to do an individual log for German... Is that okay? Did I say that right? 1 person has voted this message useful | |||||||||

I'd like to participate. I plan to focus on Spanish. I guestimate it to be A1/B1 level
now and I'd like to get it to C1 by the end of the year. As a 2ndary language I might brush up on my German which I guess to be a B1 but I'm not sure how rusty it is. The German I wouldn't have any specific goals as the focus really is the Spanish. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||||||||

It's always better to be in a team. So if it's not to late, I would be more than happy to join Swahili & Turkish teams. And if it's possible Italian too. The languages I can study without being in a team, right? Yet today I will try to list the materials I have and would like to focus on for you to consider. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||||||||

I would like to participate in the TAC 2011 individual challenge. Spanish is my primary language.

Laura M: I'm glad that my post was helpful!
Now if only I would have noticed my grammar in this sentence: "While my main priority for 2011 is to work on Danish, but I would also post about my Spanish studies in my log." English learners, take note that I made a mistake. I should have used either the "while" or the "but." Not both. "While my main priority for 2011 is to work on Danish, I would also post about my Spanish studies in my log." "My main priority for 2011 is to work on Danish, but I would also post about my Spanish studies in my log." As a stand-alone sentence, the conditional "would" is OK to use, but my previous sentences were not conditional. I changed tenses within the paragraph. Oops! All of the previous sentences were simple present. Better: "My main priority is Danish, but I also post about my Spanish studies in my log." In hindsight, it might have been better to have the whole paragraph in future tense. But that is a style issue, not a grammar issue!

Hi! I'd like to join the Russian team (ж), if it's not too late. I place myself somewhere around B2 (perhaps just B1 and a bit), and will work on improving in the next year. By the end of 2011, I'd like to be C1-ish.
