Three primary languages are spoken in Luxembourg: Letzebuergesch or Luxembourgish (recognized as the national language), German, and French. English is also spoken, primarily in the city and its surrounding areas. Here�s a little Luxembourgish to get you started:

Moien - Hello
Addi or a voir � Goodbye
Merci � Thank you
Entschellegt � Excuse me
Wannechglift � Please
Pardon � Sorry

This luxembourgish sounds like a hybrid german french...

I just read the title as Shanny's Country Song of the Week Thread.

I was relieved that it was just my mind playing with me.

Ooooohhhhhh!
Good one Margaret! We've not diven into actually learning the languages of these places but what more useful thing to learn could there be?

Good thing we started this week with Luxembourg instead of Papau New Guinea and their 850 languages last week. We would have been doing that forever!

As requested...

Latvia is prooving to be a tough one.

First things first, lets get the borders down pat.

And to do that I introduce the word of the day. Share.

Latvia "shares" borders with Estonia, Lithuania, Russia and Belarus. Imagine that one country, having the presence of mind to be able to share four different borders. I've heard of sharing one border, like we do here in Canada, but 4! Holy Smokes, those Latvians are geniouses at sharing.

They must have learned border 'sharing' from the Russians
