I'll give some thought to a team picture but I am afraid I won't be able to help much with
the song. Can anyone think of any Russian space-themed songs? Would something as obvious as a picture of the Mir Space Station be any good? LanguageSponge 1 person has voted this message useful | |||||||||

I too support Cristina for team leader.
Regarding Assimil: Could Cristina or someone else who can navigate a website in Italian please confirm that the Assimil you are talking about (post 136 and following) is the one you can see in the demo on the Italian Assimil website? I’m almost certain that both Expugnator and I are using the 70-lesson Il nuovo russo senza sforzo, Italian edition of Le Nouveau Russe sans peine by Vladimir Dronov, Vladimir Matchabelli and Françoise Gallais for the Assimil experiment. The copyright on the CDs (and so presumably the year of publication of the first edition in French) is 1998. The first lesson starts with: Добрый день! Добрый день! Как дела? Хорошо! Бы куда? … (Forgive me for the likely spelling mistakes, but it’s the first time I try to post something in Russian). Personally I have access to three editions of Assimil (either I own them or I can borrow them from the library) but unfortunately not to the most recent one by Victoria Melnikova-Suchet (and I don’t think it very likely I’ll go out and buy that too), and I suspect this is exactly the one most of the other team members own.

Most of people's success comes from recognizing a good idea when they see one - we are team MIR - we conquer, we improvise, we adapt :-) 1 person has voted this message useful | |||||||||

I have gone through the thread (all 19 pages of it!) , and have found the introductions from LanguageSponge, Luna Moonsilver, Expugnator, Tarvos, Fabricio, Emme, m. Medialisx, Josqui, teango and myself. This means we still miss a lot of introductions guys - go for it!
I have also - now that I am back home - added those logs I found reference to in the thread (tarvos, Josquin and teango). If there is any introductions or logs I have overlooked then let me know, and please post a reference here in this thread to all your logs as you start them. Don't forget to present yourselves here though! 1 person has voted this message useful | |||||||||

Hey all! I'm May, 29, graduate student, and I love learning languages. I'm focusing on
Japanese and Russian mostly this year, and also Hungarian, though not as actively. Depending on how things turn out, I may add Korean, Mandarin, or Spanish, but that'll be later, and again, depending on the circumstances. I made considerable progress in Japanese this year, and it's my first year of self study, as well as with Japanese, so I'm happy, but I still got a ways to go for total awesomeness :) Russian has been progressing slowly, but not as profoundly, and I'm a far cry from my resolution back in January, but it's mostly my fault because of the baby steps I've been taking with it. I want to get awesome at Russian this year, in all seriousness, and I intend to work at it. After my experience with Japanese, I realized that it's possible to do just that. So 2013 is the year to make both languages mine! As for Hungarian, I don't know. I love the language, but with a full plate, I hope to at least get it to a stage where I can enjoy mostly understanding spoken and written speech. After that, active output, of course, but I don't know how realistic that is for this year. It's a challenge, and I'm excited to see the results! I'm still on the fence about whether to use my old log or start a new one. I mentioned on the Japanese Team Sakura thread that I will use my existing one, but now I'm having second thoughts. In the meantime, here's a link to my log, and if I do create a new one, I'll link to it and inform the team. http://how-to-learn-any-language.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?T ID=30623&PN=1 In support of a team leader, naturally the most obvious choice is Christina :) She brings us together like no one else.
