Dear OLS community,
Are you new to Macedonian? This is your chance to improve your vocabulary on different topics and win a prize!
We invite you to go through the “OLS Learn the Basics” courses to brush up on your Macedonian before you start this mini-contest and participate!
How does it work?
To make good use of the vocabulary learned through these courses, we ask you to write a postcard to a friend or family member in Macedonian. You may think about writing the postcard from a place you’ve recently visited or where you’ve been on mobility. If you still have a mobility experience planned, you could also write about what you hope or imagine you might experience there.
If you’re a beginner, no worries! You may simply write a short message as well ;)
To help you get started, a postcard usually includes the following elements:
DATE AND PLACE: the location and date you are writing from
GREETING: Dear, Hello, etc.
BODY: The message to the recipient
FAREWELL: Warm wishes, See you soon, Hugs & kisses, etc.
SIGNATURE: your name
The prize
When you participate in this contest, you can win a €50,00 gift voucher to buy books or e-books via Libristo.eu
>>> The deadline for sending in your postcard is 27.02.2026. <<<
Final notes:
Please be reminded not to write anything that could be considered offensive. If you’re unsure, please check our OLS Forum Netiquette and House Rules.
You can only submit a maximum of one entry via the comments.
Everyone who participates in this mini contest has an equal chance of winning, and there will be ONE winner who will be chosen at random via raffle.
Wishing you a lot of fun!
Warmly,
Denica, Community Manager - Macedonian
