ALIO
The Linguistics Olympiad allows you test your mind on puzzles in logic, language and linguistics. It’s a problem solving challenge. You will be afforded the opportunity of developing strategies to solve complex problems in unfamiliar languages from around the world. No prior knowledge of either linguistics or foreign languages is required. See full brochure here. If you are interested in taking part in AILO, talk to Mr Lynch.
