 I have exported from my local laptop wordpress installation the posts I
 had. They have the following structure with categories:


 {{{
 language  --> main category, parent
 - source language   --> for example AF
 -- target language  --> for example AFAR for Africans to Arabics
 --- lessons
 ----- lesson 1      --> up to 100 lessons entries
 -- next target language
 }}}

 and so on

 this complete structure is lost after import - they are all changed to
 parent categories no single child category.
 I will attach the export file.
