But as far as I see you are very good at languages.

You studied Turkish in university? I study Turkish language and literature, too. Which university?

Of course I'm serious. I study Greek language and literature in the Aristotelio University of Thessaloniki! I just finished the first year...

Very good. I wonder Thessaloniki. I heard that it a nice place. So we have a common point, ha? you learn turkish and I learn greek; very good coincidence

Ι cannot imagine a Turk who doesn't like Thessaloniki (Selanik). Yes, it's a wonderful place to study...

Yeap, very good coincidence. You can help me with turkish, I can help you with greek

According to me Selanik is definitely the best city of Greece... (I have been in Athens,Thessaloniki and Kavala in 2005.)

You were in Kavala and in Thessaloniki, but not in Serres? Serres is better than Kavala! (As you can see, we love each other so much!)

Maria mou, i didn't know you are studying greek language... now i can understand why u like so much and have much patience to help us to learn greek
I am really glad that i have met all of you here (Maria, Seda, Alp, Milena - i didn't know u are a turkish teacher!! -, Marmaris and other cool people here who i didn't met before...) coz i love languages, although i have not studied languages at university (i am a journalist), but i'd like to work with languages (translations maybe in the future).

As many of you've already known, I am from Brazil and i can speak portuguese (of course!), spanish and english fluently... I am trying to learn turkish and greek. Actually i have been trying to learn turkish since 2003 and last year (May 2006) i've been to Türkiye for holidays (i was in Istanbul, Cappadocia, Pamukkale and Efes) but i couldn't speak as i'd like to speak (only merhaba, günaydin, tesekkürler... and some other basics) and my BF was full time with me and i was ashamed to try more to speak, even tough he encouraged me to try, i didn't take enough courage to do it... So, i am feeling like a turkish beginner yet, although some turkish people don't consider me as a beginner...

Then I'd like to learn other languages too like arabic, serbian/croatian... but i am a normal person (with my own rhythm to learn and i have many things to do at work) and i think i should learn everything in its season... I've been learning turkish for a long time and i must keep my atention on it... but greek appeared unexpectedly (coz of Sarbel's songs. You've known abt it, haven't you Seda mou? ) to me at this time too...

At last but not at least, i am glad to meet people who can share same passion of me: learning new languages and coz of it meeting new people and becoming friends. It is priceless!!!

[lesenna]

I forgot to mention that i am here ready to help about portuguese (especially brazilian portuguese) language and translations of lyrics....
You can ask me about it whatever you want and i'll be happy to help you all...
