• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Holy cow, didn't know there were other DLIers here! I'm with the 311th, DOD. Finished Smart Start this week, am starting Arabic on Monday. Fortunately I had 4 weeks of Jump Start, so I've got a good handle on sound and script. Also, I just got the last room in 840 last night, and I've only been here five weeks. :D

No way! You're so lucky. I started out living in 627 for 8 months when I got here.. >.< I'm in 840 to.. but outta here this Friday *happy dance* :D Tip for Arabic: Do LOTS of reading.. it truly helps. Don't listen to your teachers but pay attention in class. Don't freak out about grammar if you don't understand it.. just remember the rules and it will sink eventually later. Don't let other peoples negative attitudes about DLI or class or whatever around you influence your own. Enjoy your time here, work hard and be done with it. :D Santa Cruz is awesome. Go there. w0rd. Anyhoo.. good luck :D

My friend is down there.. Do you by chance know Pfc Jason Ruic? He is learning Korean out there in Monteray Bay.

Edit: I just saw that your learning arabic so you probably don't know him. That's one of the two languages that I ever care to learn and will hopefully get some practical experience from it as a missionary out in the middle east somewheres. The other is biblical greek for obvious reasons.

You're right lol, I don't see many other linguist students other than Arabic. Especially since this dude is in the army.
