Congratulations. I'm looking forward to being there myself someday.

Keep going and you will get there too!
I've just booked myself a holiday. After the 6WC finishes, I'm going to Germany for 12 nights. You'd think that would be good motivation to study, although so far I've spent more time researching and planning my holiday than I have done studying the language. Now I've got trains and hotels booked, I can go back to focusing on what's really important - getting good at German! 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Dreaming about learning often gets in the way of actual study. I have that problem a lot. I'm counting on the 6WC to give me the kick in the pants that I need. I'm determined to beat Cristina, so I have to work hard.

I had a slightly weird experience in my Japanese language exchange today. I made the mistake of using 母 when I should have used お母さん, which my partner corrected. However, when he corrected me I was a bit surprised because I was sure I had said お母さん in the first place. I already knew that 母 would be wrong in the context I used it, and yet it still slipped out without me even noticing.

I have a question for anybody studying a language with genders!
Should I concern myself with memorising nouns and articles right now? In pretty much every German course I've looked at so far, any explanation of the use of der/die/das also comes with the advice that I must memorise the article with the noun. I guess it's sound advice, since if you don't know the correct article you don't have much of a chance of producing correct German. However, my main aim at present is to build up my passive knowledge and I've been pretty much steadfastly avoiding rote memorisation of anything so far. But I'm starting to wonder, would I be saving myself future pain if I made a start on drilling nouns and genders right now? Or is it safe to leave it until I need it? 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

You can obviously see the down side of delaying it. Is not doing it right now really an 'up' side?
