Wikia - creating communities

Hello all,

I'm a french philosophy teacher, I'm 35 and I like MediaWiki and everything about it.

Here is a famous joke on the european parliament :
How do you name someone who speaks three tongues ? A trilingual person.
And two tongues ? A bilingual person.
And a single tongue ? A french person !

Well I do my best though it seems harder to me to speak other languages when you're english, because you might be approximatively understood everywhere, so you don't have to make the effort to speak something else than your mother's tongue.
