Guten Morgen, happy Monday, and welcome!! Selamat datang! Velkomin! You’ve successfully found yourself at GLN’s blog, G-Blogodaria, where Monday through Friday you’ll find linguistic and cultural entertainment in the form of photographs, stories, video clips, songs, recipes, interviews…the list goes on! Whether you’re teaching a GLN class, taking a class with GLN, used to take a class, are still trying to get into a class, have vaguely heard of the GLN in some context or another, or have no idea what you’re doing here or how you got here (helloooo Monday!), we hope you’ll find this blog amusing and maybe even learn a thing or two!

Please feel free to share this blog with your friends, leave comments, and contact us if you have any feedback or suggestions!

Since today is “Media Monday,” we’d like to welcome you into this week with a gentle song that will calm your rage about the weekend being over. Or maybe just make you even sadder that the weekend is over. Or maybe you’ll just enjoy the song for what it is. (The glass is half full, right?)

So here’s Quelqu’un M’a Dit by Carla Bruni, recommended to us by Lenore, our Director of Fund Development. Thanks, Lenore!

Enjoy!

(Have a favorite song in a foreign language? Share it with us in a comment or email and it could be featured in a future post!)
