Our next Multilingual Café is scheduled for Wednesday, 31st of July from 7.00 pm - 8.30 pm.

Jana Klacanska (Kanazawa University), a native speaker of Slovak language and teacher of German, will present an “Introduction to Slovak language”.

The presentation will provide a brief overview of the history of the Slovak language, followed by an introduction to the Slovak alphabet, pronunciation and grammar. It will also discuss the similarities and differences between Slovak and other languages.

The presentation will be in English.

What is the Multilingual Café?

The OLE SIG wants to provide a space to meet and share thoughts and knowledge on various languages and cultures using languages other than English, creating a community of practice. After a short presentation we will meet in breakout rooms (at about 7.45 pm) where the attendees discuss the presented topic in the second languages they know. (Lingua Franca: English and Japanese)

We meet online using zoom, please sign-up for receiving the zoom-credentials.
