Morning

German

Did Anki reviews. ~15 minutes.

Browsed a few news articles at Deutsche Welle. ~10 minutes.

Afternoon

French

Assimil French with Ease - Reviewed a few lessons from the book, but I fell asleep shortly after, as I was tired, and honestly, I don't recall which lessons I reviewed. I'd say that's a good sign I gained little from the review. ;) ~10 minutes.

Evening

Russian

Assimil Russisch ohne Mühe - Listened to Lessons 8-15. I was frustrated to find that I've again forgotten a number of words in a few of the lessons. So far, Russian words don't seem to have nearly as much "stickiness" for me as do French and German words. To be expected, I suppose, with a Slavic language. ~15 minutes.

German

Wrote a message to my tutor. ~15 minutes.

Assimil Russisch ohne Mühe - Reread Lesson 11. ~5 minutes.

German

Started working through Unkraut vergeht nicht, looking up words I don't know. ~10 minutes.

Assimil French with Ease - Listened to Lessons 29-38 (excluding 35, review lesson) twice each. ~40 minutes.

Reviewed a word list from a few days ago; worked on some new word lists. ~20 minutes.

Not a whole lot of language activity this weekend, as this coming week is midterm week at my university.

Afternoon

French

Worked on French word lists, using Mastering French Vocabulary. Covered 35 words. ~20 minutes.

German

Reviewed word lists; worked on some new word lists from Using German Vocabulary. ~20 minutes.

Evening

Russian

NPRC - Reread the second half of chapter 8; read chapter up to the vocabulary list. Chapter 9 seems like a rather long one in comparison to the previous ones, so I called it a night at the vocabulary list. I need to review the genitive endings (much) more, and memorize the vocabulary. I should probably quickly run through all of the chapters again at this point, to solidify what I'm learned thus far. Moving forward and tackling new case endings before fully mastering what I've learned so far seems like folly. ~40 minutes.

Afternoon

German

Did Anki reviews. While there are a few French and Russian cards in my deck, they're so few that I still considering my Anki reviews to be German study. ~10 minutes.

Worked on new word lists. ~40 minutes.

Evening

French

French word lists, using Mastering French Vocabulary. Noticing that I'm struggling a lot with getting French words to stick in comparison to German. Gender is also giving me a lot of trouble with French nouns. More exposure needed, I guess. ~30 minutes.

Assimil French with Ease - Listened to Lessons 25-34 again. ~15 minutes.

How proficient are you roughly in these languages? I'm very curious how this goes.
