found out on the BBC web page that some Eastern European countries introduced or will introduce language lessons* for bus passangers in the capital cities..In Lituania, for example, on some routes you can already listen to English or Polish lessons
The passangers get some work papers they have to complete and during their journey they can hear in the bus speakers useful phrases in the language they plan to learn...
More than that, those who are really eager to learn and test their knowledge, give the papers back to the driver, and the best of them get a free language course..The project is financed by the European Commision..
I can hardly wait to leave my car in the parking place and take the 41 tram, to hear people say:
GOOD MORNING!
I DON'T HAVE A TICKET.
WHY THE...BEEP...DON'T YOU ASK THAT GUY ABOUT THE TICKET?
GO TO...BEEP... and so on
Meaning useful phrases for a journey in the Bucharest public transport!
