The pull of Finnish is too great. I want to make a return to it but no TAC this time. I
want to take my time with it. If you remember I was suspending Finnish to learn Spanish but I didn't get very far with Spanish. It's not a language I really like so I didn't get very far with it. I miss Finnish so I want to restart (not as if I got that far with it in the first place). I still remember what I learned before I stopped (greetings, numbers, days of the week, conjugation of verbs in present tense, personal pronouns, the genitive and locative lla-llä) Also the reason why I'm calling the log Frennish, is because I also want to start with French! This Romance beauty has been on my radar for years but I was (and still am) intimidated by this behemoth. You'd think that would be case with Finnish what with 15 cases and all but French pronunciation is sure to kick my ass way worse than the partitive possibly could. Now in order to try and keep all three of my languages at a manageable level. I've got specific goals with Finnish and French. With French, for a month or so, I don't plan on learning a word. Not one word that I don't already know. Instead I'm opting for pure listening. I want to focus on the sounds of French and training the ear for the language. I'll be using News in Slow French for this endeavor. With Finnish I want to focus on grammar and vocabulary since that's the hardest part (IHMO). I'll be utilising the Uusi Kielemme site. Also I've created a false immersion enviornment with my computer, as I've put it all in Finnish. In the past, I've found that this technique works for me with vocabulary since for some reason, I tend to remember vocabulary better when I've learned it in context. 2 persons have voted this message useful |
