I won't be taking up any more languages in 2010. I need to spend the entire coming year with upkeep of my Finnish skills (reading, watching movies, playing games etc. all in Finnish). I won't start on another language for a LONG time, not until I have absolutely cemented my grasp of Finnish.

Italian: reread my Assimil book and go through the entire Assimil perfectionnement (for French speakers), read books in Italian (at least 3) and take the CELI 2 exam (level B1), if successful I will try the CELI 3 (level B2) later in the year if possible.
Dutch: finish Assimil and read Max Havelaar, take a Dutch language exam (level B1) Esperanto: finish Assimil and work on Lernu, read a few books in Esperanto 2 persons have voted this message useful | |

Great goals everyone. Hope you all achieve them.
2010 goals for currently studied languages: Maintain my German and French and start making use of tutors to improve and refine my speaking skills. READ MORE French and German. I seriously don't read anywhere enough in any language and it's embarrassing. Activate my Spanish and Swedish. Try and get my vocabulary up to around 15,000 in each by December 31, 2010. Try to do the same for French and German (should be pretty easy, since I have a pretty wide vocabulary in German and French is not far behind). Finish both volumes of James Heisig's "Remembering Traditional Hanzi" and then, if I have enough time, make a start on learning the remaining 1400 odd characters in Richard Harbaugh's "Chinese Characters: A Dictionary and Genealogy". Work through all three volumes of John DeFrancis' Chinese Reader series, then start going through LingQ. Try and hit at least Upper-Intermediate on Chinesepod. Future languages for 2010: After I have gotten underway with Spanish and Swedish and chatted with the tutors and basically developed a level of all-round comfort in these languages, make a start on Dutch, Italian and Portuguese and essentially cover the most major Germanic and Romance languages. If I can handle it, make a start on Russian. Now let's see how much of this I actually achieve! t's going to be quite tough, because I was extremely lazy with my University studies last year and did poorly in my classes. I've made the resolution to really nail my remaining classes for my degree and come out with some top marks. So balancing that with my language studies is going to be a real challenge. Hopefully an enjoyable one, but a real challenge nonetheless. Edited by ChristopherB on 28 December 2009 at 11:18am 1 person has voted this message useful | |
