Tongue Stories Competition

Here's a link to a competition you can participate in.

The European Day of Languages 2010 marks the launch of the competition Tongue Stories. Organised by the European Commission, the competition aims to demonstrate, through interesting and amusing anecdotes, how many different ways people can benefit from foreign language knowledge, and to inspire people to learn foreign languages. Citizens over 18 living in 31 European countries are invited to share their stories on the advantages of knowing languages.

Interested in knowing more about languages in Europe? News, information on language policy, initiatives and much more are available on the Multilingualism website of the European Commission.

More on the competition in the terms and conditions.
