Special tip

Please note:  This link does'nt work anymore because this service is only very limited available. It was the best site and possibility to test the own abilities in European languages seriously. It has been used and recommended by many professional institutes like universities and others. It is really a scandal that this project of the European Commission has been and it is not yet clear why they have done so. Was it a question of costs? Was it influence by the big language institutes? Something else? I hope I can tell you about it sometime in next months.  (06/2010)
