I can tell you one if you txt me.
Then What?
Txt your results to me. Post them here (below).
As you find out, can you forward the message to me? And, write your discoveries below.
So What?
We will learn how to say: "Good Day" in many different languages.
It might come in handy, and I like to teach my students simple things like that. Whenever we study a current event from a country, we'll know one positive part of that country.
