In Franc's method, one have a original text in target language with a partial translation in Russian (in the beginning of the book, almost every word is translated, with grammar comments), phrase by phrase. Some books (unfortunately, not all of them) are with audio records. So it's a nice combination of "Assimiling", parallel text and LR. @Luso Unfortunately, all Sanskrit cours-books in Russian are without audio records. For me it's important, especially in the beginning, to listen a language. So for a moment I prefer Assimil in French. Then I will use Russian courses to enrich the vocabulary and grammar knowledge. 1 person has voted this message useful | |

French: Super Challenge Reading
Fiction: J’aime bien le livre de Catherine Pancol « Les yeux jaunes des crocodiles ». Ce roman est surtout sur les relations familiales, mais ça parle aussi, en peu, d’utilité de connaître des langues : une femme, abandonnée par son mari et obligée de nourrir ses filles toute seule, trouve un job de traductions. I really like the book "Les jeux jaunes des crocodiles" by Katherine Pancol. Travels: "« Pyrénées Histoire » magasin Actually, living in Toulouse, I am close to sites related to the catharism movement. So I am reading the literature about it and I plan to go to Albi this week-end. 1 person has voted this message useful | |

Sanskrit: Assimil
I revised a couple of lessons today: Lesson 14 - a summary of six previous lessons - and Lesson 15, called "dve mtre" (two friends), which introduce unusual verb form - dual. For example: Nagare vasāmaḥ - we live in a city (plural) āvāṁ nagare vasāvaḥ - (both) we live in a city (dual) Hungarian: Super Challenge I finished one more chapter from "Toldi Miklós": a book adopted by I. Frank method, which consist on acquiring the vocabulary without learning a lot of grammar, just observing the same words in different context. For example, I notice a lot of phrase with "eye", "hand", "daughter/girl": Állj fel, leányom – Stand up, my daughter! A te udvari leányod lesz Rozgonyi Piroska – Piroska Rozgonyi will be your court circle maid Ment a két leány kéz a kézben – two girls went hand by hand Kezén – in the hands 2 persons have voted this message useful | |

@expungator
For the moment, I did not read a lot about cathars exept from « Pyrénées Histoire » magasin (2013 edition is dedicated to cathars because of anniversary of of the Muret battle of 1213, where the cathars were defeated) and brief comments in the "Guide Vert Michelin: Languedoc-Roussillon" , I will find more literature while traveling. 2 persons have voted this message useful | |
