Greetings, and welcome to February at Berlitz WordMaster! Groundhog Day, Setsubun, the Super Bowl, Presidents' Day, Mardi Gras, National Foundation Day (Kenkoku Kinenbi), Valentine's Day, Chinese New Year, and (every four years) Leap Day - for the shortest month of the year, February sure packs a punch!

And we think this week's editions pack quite a punch, as well. Take a look at our latest WordMaster series on “Dining Out” and see if you don't agree!
