    Language Society
    So here it is the
    Language Society

    If you are interested in languages and everything that is somehow loosely connected to languages this society is for you!

    (If there is no "hello" in your language let me know!)


    IMPORTANT: REQUESTS TO JOIN THE LANGUAGE SOCIETY SHOULD BE WRITTEN IN:
    ENGLISH, GERMAN, FRENCH OR POLISH!!!

    (Unfortunately I’m no polyglot and thus would appreciate if you could write the request in a language that I am able to understand)

    Oh, sorry to digress from the digression, but has anyone here ever been to Frankfurt, or even lived there? I've been offered an award to attend a Sommerschule at the uni there, and was just wondering what kind of a city it is!
    which frankfurt?

    P.S. - the modern greek's spelt "Γεια", lower case ghamma (γ) looks like upper case ipsilon (Y) but they're crafty them greeks :p:

    Yeah and it's quite big actually. It's on the border to Poland, about half an hour from Berlin. The Oder seperates the city, the western part is the German Frankfurt and the eastern part the polish Slubice. Btw FF is Frankfurt am Main.
