About the event

Language Coffeehouse
Take a break from studying and enjoy free drinks and snacks from around the world! You can learn to order and enjoy mít khô and nước dừa in Vietnamese, चाय and चकली in Hindi, or Κουραμπιέδες and βυσσινάδα in Modern Greek! Instructors and students from the Less-Commonly-Taught Languages Center and Pitt's many language departments will teach you how to order in Swahili, German, Quechua, Hebrew, Irish, Mandarin, Persian, Akan/Twi, Turkish, and many more of the over 30 languages offered at Pitt. Then you can place your order at the Language Coffeehouse and enjoy free drinks and snacks from around the world. Have you ever wondered what sorts of treats people enjoy in Ethiopia, or Russia, or Sweden, or Brazil, or Nigeria, or how to sign your order at a signing café? Stop by the Language Coffeehouse in the WPU Assembly Room on Friday 2/20 between 11:00 and 1:00 to find out. This is the international study break you have been waiting for!
