Expug, I'm comfortable reading Chinese books, but my reading speed is still abysmal, ca.
4-5 minutes per page. That is why I couldn't complete the challenge last year (also it was 100 pages to a book then). Good luck to you! Let me know if you need recommendations of relatively easy Chinese books. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Thank you, Sprachprofi. If you have any recommendations apart from the Chinese Breeze
series (which is hard for me to get hold of), I'd be happy to hear. I'm going for a half challenge, so that means 1/4 of the original SC. Maybe I won't manage it, but I should push myself towards it because I've been neglecting this skill for too long, seeing how easy and nice it is to just watch Chinese series. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Ok. You know you are all out of your mind, right :-) Here I recommend one language only, and then most of
you register with 3-4 languages. Well, unable to resist the peer pressure, I am giving in, and will add a half French challenge to my Russian challenge. I will stop there at the moment, and will then see if I have the capacity to add more languages later on. LANGUAGE: Russian CHALLENGE: Full CURRENT LEVEL: A2 COMMENTS: My level was too low last time, I am hoping to succeed this time, and look forward to seeing many participants join in!!! LANGUAGE: French CHALLENGE: Half CURRENT LEVEL: C1-C2 speaking and listening, C1 reading, B2 writing COMMENTS: Even the not completed Advanced Challenge I attempted last time did absolute wonders for my French, so I am hoping it will give it an even greater boost this time.

For those wanting to discuss resources, make recommendations or ask for resource advice, BAnna has started a Content Recommendations SuperChallenge thread. On the first post, she has links to new pages on the wiki that she has set up for anyone to make recommendations. But use the thread for discussion purposes.

LANGUAGE: Spanish
CHALLENGE:FULL CURRENT LEVEL: A2 COMMENTS: I have been studying Spanish off and on for 5 years. I am indecisive so I usually switch between languages which leads to me not learning any languages at a reasonable level. I am committed to learning Spanish this time. I love reading and movies so this challenge is perfect to help me raise my Spanish level. Super excited. I am starting with Don Quijote. Also there are several parallel text on this site : http://www.novelas.rodriguezalvarez.com/index.php/listado-no velas Mainly in Spanish but a few in other languages. Where is the twitterbot?
