Korean Godfather
Many teams this year have native or advanced speakers of their target language(s) as godparents. The godparents' role is help out and answer difficult questions about their languages. I'm very happy to announce that we now have a godfather for Korean on our team! Leurre is going to participate with Japanese and Korean as his study languages and will also help with Korean questions. Welcome to the team!

iawia has agreed to help out with questions about Mandarin usage (from a Taiwanese perspective), literature and some Classical Chinese. Thanks a lot!

I thought it was time to include it on the front page, now that we have two (maybe three with yuhakko later in the year?) Thai learners on our team. I hope the greeting is correct, google translate is not always reliable...

Everything correct (if you're male, that is) :) Great to have three Thai learners on the team!

Ha, I knew google translate would mess up! What's the female version of "Hello everyone"?
Or wait... does the male/female distinction depend on the speaker or on the people who are being addressed?

It depends on the speaker (on you). Female would be สวัสดีค่ะทุกคน. Choose whatever is appropriate :)
