Mark, if you want to take every sentence I write literally, and argue about it, please,
not here. I've asked you a million times not to do this and you keep doing it. So unless
you can behave, stop posting here, you're just going to cause arguments for no reason.

This morning I spent mostly on a Russian class, and I am sitting my final exam in 1,5
hours. My Russian comprehension is improving, though I still have trouble here and there.
I have another trial lesson (with a different, Moldovan teacher) tomorrow evening but
will return to my other teacher on Monday. The reason I added another teacher to the mix
is I want to a) do more Russian, and b) she teaches Romanian, which is a language I will
also focus on sometime soon (and have already occupied myself with here and there).
Tonight is French night, and when I come back I will probably study some Breton. I might
even do some Hebrew on the train.

Exam sat. Exam went well, which means I don't have that sword of Damocles hanging over me anymore. Well, I still need the confirmation that my grade is a pass, but it was not sufficiently different from the mock exam to present a real issue (not that I expected this to be an issue in the first place; I didn't sit the exam because of other circumstances, not because I'd failed the exam in the first place). My Assimil Romanian is on its way, which is great! I am also soon receiving a Hebrew grammar and my copy of Colloquial Icelandic (somewhere next week, likely) so I am all set.
I also got up to lesson 15 of the Routledge Hebrew course in the train back home from Middelburg yesterday (I was at work there. Yes, I have an internship in Zealand). One more unit to go to finish Unit 1.

RO: Am învățat limba română azi. Sunt terminat cu prima lecție.
If anyone here speaks Romanian, please help me out, haha. By the way, Assimil writes
sînt, but it is sunt nowadays. Sunt Italian, sunt român.

Tonight I also have a Russian trial lesson on offer and I am also planning to finish
Unit 16 of the Routledge course (did not get round to it last night).

Merci beaucoup!
Le roumain n'est pas si nouvel pour moi; j'ai jamais appris le roumain officiellement, ça
veut dire que je n'utilisais pas un livre de texte ou quelque chose comme ça; mais j'ai
écouté le roumain pendant deux années. Je sais comment prononcer le roumain, je connais
également des phrases de politesse et comment s'introduire. De plus, le français et le
latin sont liés au roumain, et donc, j'ai un avantage.

Today I have spent time on working outside doing my job (in the snow), but once I got
home, refreshed and all, I have spent a bit of time on some languages, namely I have
done two lessons of Assimil for Breton (44 second wave, 93 first wave), and one for
Romanian + Anki 2.0 (I upgraded and decided to use Anki again for Romanian, still using
wordlists for Breton).
There is not much news to be had concerning either of these languages; the Romanian one
was full of vocabulary that I knew (having heard plenty of Romanian phone conversations
will impregnate "la telefon" into you). And "ce mai faci" is just a standard phrase
anyways. I did learn some useful first-person forms of verbs, including cred (je
crois), vine (il vient. The imperative is Vin!, which is used commonly in households,
hahaha...), târziu (tard), which is one that I also have seen before due to train
delays, etc. Romanian is a trip down nostalgia road, but it's great to see what I can
already guess from my background.
