Or is your list just for 2017? I'm new to this forum and these "teams" so unsure if they are usually restarted every new year.


The Esperanto one was just a team for last year's TAC rather than a study group so it's technically come to an end now. But we could create an Esperanto study group :)


I'm all for that!

Please add the Celtic Team to the list of study groups. We started as a TAC team last year, but I think it would be nice to have a place for students of Celtic languages after the TAC has ended.

Most study groups are in the "Study Groups" subforum except the DELE group (OP reineke) and the Polish group (OP moo, apparently no longer a member). Is this correct categorisation? Subforum descriptions say:

Subforum descriptions wrote:
Language challenges & teams
Ongoing language-learning challenges, and team challenge logs (but not individual logs)

Study Groups
An area with study groups for various languages. Group members help each other, share resources and experience. Study groups are permanent but the members rotate and change.

Should we removed "& teams" from "Language challenges & teams" if that's what's causing confusion? (And maybe apply consistent capitalisation while we are there).
