Unos cuantos... My dad is Catalan, by the way, but he's got more Spanish blood in him than anything else really... I speak Catalan, English, Spanish and French very fluently, then I'm studying German, Greek, Italian and Occitan too. And I want to begin Latin and Chinese. Stop laughing. |

I did my first degree in languages, so have a few under my belt; but I decided to do Japanese this year. Mostly working on the spoken language so far, but occasionally having a go at the written language; mostly during long rehearsals!
I can highly recommend one series of language CDs if you want to learn another language without too much stress: it's called Learn in Your Car, and comes in several languages. A friend of mine is learning German with it, and another is working on Spanish; I use the Japanese one. It's purely aural, no written work, but as both a linguist and a beginner in Japanese I find it very clear. You don't need a car of course, just a cd player. Give it a go in the language of your choice! |

Have any of you played simple system flutes like those typical for Celtic music? Just curious how hard it is to move between the different types. I listen to a lot of traditional Celtic music so I hear the 'Irish' flute a lot.  |
