I try to keep in shape by reading books in languages I'm not using.  Or
converse with people about programming languages I don't use anymore,
such as Pascal.

I've managed to keep my French more or less intact, but could use a
brush up on Danish, and of course German as I said.  I'm sure I'll
find something to inspire me to keep practicing German.  After all,
I'm struggling to read Asterisk and Obelisk in Latin.


Best wishes, and happy language studies in comp.lang.lisp!

Have you tried shortwave radio? You'll get all kinds of people talking
different languages; not to mention it is rather entertaining.
