What's the matter with you log title? So many strange signs have appeared.

Cool. We picked up the same course for Ukrainian. I hope that I'll get a chance to break it in soon.

I'm really looking forward to starting it. Even the website with all the audio is slick. Though it may not be terribly
important, having a well put together course (at least in terms of design/visuals) helps to make the learning process
feel more well thought out and purposeful.

Another interesting log on this team. I think I would follow all of our team's logs even if I wasn't on the team. I'm especially interested in your Slovak progress and Ukrainian to a slightly lesser extent. I'm also constantly trying to improve my Slovak and watch a lot of Slovak TV.
Did you speak Slovak as a very young child or has English always been the main language for you? Do you understand it well? What about Czech? Do you understand that at all as a result of your Slovak abilities?
I'm looking forward to being on your team.

My Slovak abilities are mainly passive. I understand most standard Slovak but the
Eastern dialects are really difficult for me. I do have some active ability, I've
studied the differences between Slovak and Czech and am always taking note of different
vocabulary. I can speak at a very basic level but Czech heavily influences my active
Slovak.
Can you understand Slovak films or radio? Have you been to Slovakia?
