Thanks.
I also just want to say thank you for creating Mnemosyne. Growing up, I
struggled with languages and nearly failed French in high school despite
working really, really hard. As a result, I believed that I was someone
who was just not good at languages. Twenty years later, I needed to pass a
French test in order to keep my job. Because of Mnemosyne, I passed this
test and I have since continued my French studies. I use Mnemosyne every
day. Three years later, I am now at the highest level of French for people
who work in the Canadian civil service. I now lead a French-speaking
team! This is unbelievable.
THANKS
