Description
The activity wants to sensitize the learner for foreign languages. The story “La souris multilingue” (which should be called "souris plurilingue" if one follows the terminology recommended by the experts of the Counicl of Europe!) is available in ten different languages: French, Portuguese, German, Spanish, Italian, Serbo-Croatian, Swiss-German, English, Luxembourgian and Albanian. The learner gets the story in at least two languages which he does not know. Then he is requested to find hints to relate the text with the correct language. Thereafter he has to write the story in his native language or target language. Once he finished this task, he will get the original story so that he may compare it to the text written by him. Consequently, the aim of this activity is to enable learners to distinguish, compare and recognize the different languages.
