Dear Mirjana,

 

unfortunately the flu has gotten me and I'm on sick leave for the whole

week. I will also not be in a position to take part in the phone call

tomorrow. Sorry for this.

If you are already starting to calculate the average times:

Before my leave, I already checked one of the languages and it took me

45 minutes (but only the new writing system, I still have to do the old

writing system and the other assigned language).

 

Best regards,

 

Michael
