There is no official list yet, but we always have a lot of Spanish learners. You are basically choosing between:
-Team Iberia (Spanish and also Portuguese, Catalan, Galician, Papiamento - of course most people study just one or two of these :))) -Team STARt - for people learning their first foreign language or the first after English. this is true about many learners of Spanish, including first time language learners from the UK/USA, and others who already speak English and want MORE :) -Team Spanish - mostly for those who don't want to be in either of the teams above. The main advantage is that all of your teammates will at least try to study Spanish, though for some people the priorities may change. This year we also had TWO Romance teams, btw. But it does seem like most people were only interested in interacting with people who learn the same language as they do, especially French and Spanish. If anyone wants to fiercely protest about the likely lack of a Romance team, speak up now. 2 persons have voted this message useful | |||

Is there a German team? I don't want to let my German rust...
EDIT: And I will ask after a Middle-Eastern team again. Arabic/Persian/Pashto, anyone? Edited by Zireael on 06 December 2013 at 7:58pm 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

I'm going to watch the match Argentina X Iran at the World Cup, but I doubt I can learn
much in six months to make it really worth trying to talk to Iranians. 2 persons have voted this message useful | |||
