Apparently, by the time the final choice of profession Germanic prospects for future spouses were already identified as Luda has decided to learn German. But at the Philology of Leningrad University, the preparatory department which she graduated, "German" places on all comers not enough, and specialty Ludmila (then Shkrebneva) were Spanish language and literature. However, as expected, German, and Germany itself it could not be avoided ...
