It\u2019s been some interesting years, and I\u2019ve been learning a lot from communicating with my readers. Thank you for being there and for all your feedback! However, I also want to write other things than blog posts, and to explore other areas than language teaching. And as you know if you\u2019ve been following this blog for a while, the frequency of posts has been going down as Transparent Language is increasing its focus on other ways to teach languages. (Which means there might not come a new blogger here in the foreseeable future.) So, this will be my last post for this blog. I know some of you will feel let down, but nobody can please everybody. I hope you\u2019ll keep learning Danish! \ud83d\ude42 <strong>Tak for selskabet! Held og lykke videre!<\/strong> (Thank you for the company!
