I think I'm going to register with Norwegian again. I chose not to participate in August and I should probably stay out of this one too so that I can focus on school, but the end of the challenge corresponds nicely with the end of my focus period on Norwegian. After that it will back to Portuguese, at least for a little while.

I will register with Hungarian. I missed the registration in August and just remembered that I haven't partcipated in a 6WC since last year.
I hope everyone does well in the challenge. Edited by mick33 on 20 October 2013 at 5:44am 2 persons have voted this message useful | |||

I can do have one question, im studying German for the challenge as well as Spanish. So if I was doing
Spanish too German for learning, how would I record that time? For example if I do flash cards from Spanish to German for one hour is that one hour of German and one hour Spanish or 30 minutes of each? 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

It could be whatever split of 60 minutes you want... But obviously not more than 60 minutes in total. I'll take part in the 6WC with German, though I'll have a few other languages at low regime (Hungarian, Spanish, Italian, Greek). German will be my main target, and I hope to be able to spend 3h/day on it, focusing on activating my knowledge and expanding vocabulary and idiomatic usage. EDIT: I might consider doing a joint German/Hungarian 6WC. The bulk of the work will still be on German, but I'll try to do as much Hungarian as I can in the remaining time, given that my nearest colleague at the office is a native speaker I get along with very well.

After coming 4th in my first 6WC with German in August, I'm looking forward to the fun of my second 6WC.
This time around I will be registering with the language of Italian, and I am starting as a complete beginner. My final university exams don't finish until the 20th of November, and I am also working full-time 40hours a week during the 6WC. Excuses aside, I'm looking forward to getting the most out of the 6 weeks! I've also set up a dedicated 6WC Twitter Account so I don't annoy my friends on twitter. 1 person has voted this message useful |
