Il est gentil David le luxembourgeois mais :
Libre circulation des travailleurs (art. 45 TFUE et Règlement 492/2011)
Circulez rien a voir…
Le mec a un nom plus français que le Jemp moyen mais va chialer pour que son patois soit imposé aux frontaliers qui, soyons honnête, alimentent le Ponzi de retraites Lu…
If it was well put together, free, and online I would be down.
Kinda silly, i guess an a2 level in theory can’t hurt for integration except that in our business world, most people don’t even encounter Luxembourgish. If you plan to immigrate and become naturalized, you do have to learn to language so that is pretty good already
Why not…I hope this time the courses to learn French or luxembourguish are then at reasonable hours and not during normal working time hours, like I have seen at the commune
Everyone should have at least A2.2 Luxembourgish. Preserve the language. It’s courtesy.
For me, the problem is not only learning a language, but maintaining it. If I don’t use it every day, I forget it.
For example, I already have difficulty learning French, even if it’s widely spoken in Luxembourg. At my work we only speak English, so I don’t really practice.
So even if you learn Luxembourgish, it’s hard to keep it if you don’t use it daily. I think the issue is not just courses, but having people to actually speak with every day.
Forcing migrants and frontaliers to learn a basically useless language will make the country a less attractive place to work.
Thanks, signed it. As an expat when I tried to sign up for courses the ones in hours that work get full so fast that I did not manage it. A f as I don’t need that, it was just something I wanted to get better understanding I dropped it. Having one at work would solve it for me
If this country only had one language, it might be reasonable. But the truth is that there are other two which are official, much more useful generally speaking, with one in particular (French) acting as “lingua franca”. So unless you need to obtain citizenship, absolutely no reason to learn Luxembourgish.
