That's up to you. There is the Romance team, the Germanic team and the Scandinavian team. Scandinavian might end up as a part of the Germanic team if it doesn't get enough members by itself. You can have a look at the list of teams on post 69 or post 2 (they are the same). Maybe that will help you decide. You can also be on more than one team if you think you can handle it. garyb: I've added you to the Romance team. 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

Hm maybe I should join the Scandinavian team as well? Probably my only chance to be Julie's teammate:D (if you want to be on the Slavic/Romance team with French/Russian/(Polish) you'd be sooooo welcome ♥♥♥) 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

I'd like to propose one new thing: liaison / exchange / 'supervisor' members for TAC Teams.
As we all know here, it can be extremely beneficial to have the help of native or otherwise knowledgeable speakers of the languages we study. Why not share that as well, especially when it shjould be all the more beneficial for those who intend to boost their studies by enrolling in the TACs, and we have plenty of those people right here at HTLAL? I'd propose that natives or sufficiently advanced speakers who are not actively studying their target languages anymore can enroll in TAC teams to help out the studying members, or otherwise add to the fun, drift their teams more towards TL and away from English-only communication, etc. :) We've had some real Russian speakers in Team Sputnik (Russian Team for TAC '12) Skype sessions and God saw it was good. I think it would be even better if this becomes more the rule than it is the exception, just not constrained to Skype (which most teams don't seem to do anyway) but generalized to any team activities. To preach by the example, I offer myself as such liaison member for any Spanish Team that may be formed or teams that have Spanish as one of their TLs. If this is approved / considered a good idea, I'll update my post with links to such teams when it happens. 4 persons have voted this message useful | ||||||

This is a great idea! In one of the organisations I work with, this is called a Godfather, and he steps in with good advice and support whenever needed. Since the Scandinavian team seems to consist of mainly Norwegian students, I'll offer my help to them. I have always wanted to be a fairy Godmother :-) 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

Haha, if people ever need a Dutch supervisor, I can handle that. I suppose that's the
only language I can do. Apart from English. 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

Does this mean Chung is on the wrong team? I was a little confused. Chung seems to be studying ALL languages. 1 person has voted this message useful |
