mailing is real help to remind Moscow Polyglots that we're gathering and getting steady =)

also word of mouth attracts new members to our meetings

Good morn, guys and gals!

Short report on the meeting again



It was not crowdy this time and it seems the evening was fun! (just as usual). PHOTOS are available!



We spoke mostly English and some Russian at the beginning just to warm up.

*UPDATE* - maybe Vicor and Tania spoke Spanish? ...



IMHO, the gathering was a little bit academic. The topics I took part in discussion are:

-Wired & wireless networks,

-emoticons & texting language,

-how to learn Japanese,

-various questions on writing rules and exceptions in Russian/Turkish/Japanese languages

-where to find Russian movies with subtitles

-...

Hey you ppl!

Polyglot meetings traditionally have been on the second and fourth thursdays.... and from a modest attendance earlier, we have grown to larger numbers and more enthusiastic participation from all!

Keeping this in view, and with the consent of the regulars, we propose to meet EVERY thursday henceforth.... bt before we take the decision and carve it in stone, we will meet next thursday - the 17th of July - for an extra Polyglot session

We will also have our centre-of-universe, Alex Volkov, back by then, and we can decide there whether we want to do it regularly....

So get ready for the extra dose of headrush next thursday and all the French, Spanish, Italian, English, Arabic, Hindi you can handle!

The Venue is our Headquarters: Kafé -Stolovaya № 1'Kopeika'

The meeting is in the  VERANDAH of the Café at  7pm (evening!)
