Oh, t'as des bonnes notes! On peut, en général, obtenir dix-huit sur vingt aux testes
finaux, mais il faut vraiment qu'on fasse tous les devoirs, et particulièrement, qu'on
fasse ses écrits chaque semaine. Quand j'étais à l'AF, je faisais toujours ces petits
devoirs écrits - ce sont les véhicules d'apprentissage les plus magnifiques qu'on peut
imaginer.

Moi j'avais que de tels résultats mais il faut s'appliquer. Je conseille vraiment la
répétition quotidienne. Écris régulièrement et ça se voit directement.

Merci beaucoup @tarvos! Ça que tu dis est vrai; il faut que je fasse les devoirs, parce que j'ai perdu la plus part des
points dans le test de grammaire, quand avec les tests finaux j'ai pris des bonnes notes parce que j'utilise la langue
pendant la semaine donc je suis habitué á parler, lire et écouter le français. Mes problems maintenant sont:
- l'écriture (causé par ma grammaire que n'est pas parfaite)
- la pronunciation, que n'est pas très mal ma je peux sûrement l'améliorer.

Je suis confiant que avec un peux plus d'application ça va être un résultat approchable.

@Jolanthe Dank je wel :)

Today the best achievement was to make order in my hard drive.
Other than this, I had a very bad Dutch study session and I've listened quite a lot of Spanish radio.
Oh, and I realized that I waste a lot of useful study time looking up informations in English when I can actually do it
in french, dutch or Spanish.

Done the first 5 lessons of Le néerlandais sans peines. Too easy.
The new Dutch with Ease is much more challenging. I will progress really fast until when I can make the difficulty of
the two courses match.
I'm nevertheless doing the lessons and the exercises.
I decided to drop duolingo, it was slowing me too much. I would like to finish the passive wave of the two Assimil
for the end of the year. Finishing also the Methode 90 would be also great. Let's see how it goes.

Today I heard a conversation between a Dutch man and a Belgian lady speaking in Dutch.
I understood almost 100% of what the Belgian lady said, with the Dutch man being much more challenging to
understand. It's not the first time I observed that Vlaamse is much easier for me to understand, not sure if it is only
because the pronunciation is much clearer or it is also more phonetic.

Today I managed to have a lunch speaking only Dutch without a word of English, without the staff turning into
English. It's just a small thing but I feel good :)

Vlaams - you don't add an e for languages (or dialects or accents).

Vlaams, Nederlands, Frans, Italiaans, etc.

Thanks for the correction @Tarvos :)
I was used to do this error but in this case was actually a typo.

I decided to buy a month of Dutchpod101. I'm going to use only the audio (lower beginner, upper beginner,
advanced and advanced video - unfortunately no intermediate) with the lecture notes to do listening - reading.
The thing I like the most is that they talk extensively about Dutch culture. While I'm going to study principally with
the two Assimil and the Methode90 in this stage, I will also introduce this material as ulterior complement.

I will use also the material for French from Lower Intermediate to Advanced, but then I don't need the lecture notes
so the free 7 days are enough to me to get the material (there is a limit of 7 lecture notes downloadable in the 7 free
days, that caused me to buy the month for the Dutch course).

If it's not clear, I'm attempting to knocking down Dutch the fastest that I can. My current level is quite strange I
would say. Still not A2 but I'm going to try to reach B1 for January (probably, around A2 speaking).
