Thank you Oisin and Peter. 

I am afraid that I will have to hope for the Windows installer that Peter 
mentioned as I am not "technical" enough to change the Mnemosyne source 
code... I also do not know how not-to select the sublanguage.

Or perhaps I am missing something? And if the workaound could be applied 
from the level of Mnemosyne itself or by editing some Mnamosyne files -  
could you please give me more details how to do this?

regards
blickwn
