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
