Hi
I joined a group called "Let's fight against the disappearing of the subjunctive". Okay, I can see that some of you are thinking "gosh, what a boring stuff! "... but it's not! I describe it quickly. It's an Italian group, or better it is addressed to Italian speaking people, since participants are from many different countries. It hosts many different sub-discussions related to the use of correct Italian language, the detection of funny , or I should better say horrible, grammar mistakes, but there is also a poetry's corner, a space to discuss about "good and bad" books, another dedicated to neologisms or italianizations of "internet words" (quite scaring) and so on. I'm participating in some discussions, as one about words that are unfortunately disappearing, and I'm working hard to contribute to a section where people plays on words modifying just a letter in an existing word to create another one with a different funny meaning.
Well, I guess this is an example of informal learning, gained in a very relaxed and joyful way, as well as a way to speak and know new people with whom I share common interests (many are teachers or academics...).
Now I'm going to play :-)
