Some terms I learnt in Luxemburg in November 2013

Leaflet to encourage students of the Noord-Wes-Universiteit in Potchefstroom, SA to learn to speak Tswana.

 FRONTALIERS: people who travel into Luxemburg every day to work there. About 40% of Luxemburg's workforce exists of frontaliers, which has a considerable impact on the language situation.

TRANSLANGUAGING: educational technique invented in Wales, whereby students receive information (the "input") in one language and have to process it (create an "output") in another, for instance reading a text in Welsh and analysing it in English.
