Welcome back! Interesting projects, Teango, and, as usual, poetic and inspirational
writing. I love writing as much as languages, and it's great getting both when reading your posts. There's something very personal and beautiful in learning a language that is inherently your own to begin with. You're very lucky :) I saw an Irish script a few months back, and decided to learn the language once I get a leg up in my current ones, hopefully. All the best!

When I walk in the forest nowadays, I sometimes hear the distant chant of the local Elves: It is a new song about the legend of Teango, who in the year of 2010 conquered The Kingdom of Spain in only 30 days. They also sing about his future triumphant return when he will finally complete the wonderful work he started. -I am proud to have been there when it happened! :) I know it wont be long before you'll be able to both conquer new languages and perfecting the ones that are already under you A1-B2-belt. Meanwhile, this simple quote always helps me when I think about my temporarily neglected languages :) "A forgotten memory, when regained, is always better remembered." 2 persons have voted this message useful | |||

My German (speaking) fluency also leaves a lot to be desired, as clearly demonstrated on
the Sputnik skype session last sunday. However, I very much look forward to conversing with you in Spanish and German later this year. And that Subento thing sounds really exciting! Awaiting your reports impatiently. //aloysius Edited by aloysius on 29 January 2012 at 12:58pm 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Please pardon me, I may have missed your description of Subento elsewhere, but
what does it do? Is it a software that transcribes audio? It sounds intriguing! 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

I've seen on Twitter that you've been watching a lot of Russian films, Teango! I'll try to download one of them (O chem govoryat mujchiny). Is it good?
Also, how is your progress? 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Thanks for all the great comments and encouragement guys! It's brilliant to be back.
@Woodsei Regarding Subento...I developed this software about half a year ago to help me actively study movies and train my listening skills, and have just been sitting on it ever since. So now I've finally got a window of opportunity, I hope to test it out over the next month or so, primarily to see if it works as intended or turns out to be a complete flop of an idea, and will share the results (and more juicy details later on, if a success) in my blog. @fabriciocarraro I really liked О чём говорят мужчины (2010) because the language is contemporary and it's just a fun bloke's film (can't say my girlfriend was equally as enthusiastic though haha). Another film I liked recently was Неадекватные люди (also 2010), probably worth checking out too. However at heart I'm still a big romantic really, so my all-time favourites are Ирония судьбы (1975) and Служебный роман (1977). Keep away from the modern sequels to these heart-warming classics though - they're not even on the same planet. ;) Edited by Teango on 08 February 2012 at 10:41pm 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

I've been stalking the charts and I noticed you have some interesting tags, like vocabulary-checking, studyandclick, crosstalk, grammar-test (in class? self-testing?). Could you explain them briefly? :)
