@renaissancemedi: A belated ευχαριστώ πολύ για την διόρθωσή του ^^
I still haven't learned the word οποίος, even though I've occasionally seen it in use. But that construction reminds me of French: στα Ελληνικά: ο λόγος για τον οποίο en français: la raison pour laquelle whereas in English and German it is: in English: the reason why auf Deutsch: der Grund, warum Hm, 一石二鳥ですね。Two birds with one stone, as the Japanese say. I learn something new in Greek and repeat the same thing in French. Not bad. Greek/Ελληνικά Assimil repetition: 14/53 μαθίματα Langenscheidt repetition: still 0/5 μαθίματα Easy Reader: 33/46 pages Yes, I haven't done very much those last days and no real excuse for that... Japanese/日本語 Kanji: 130/240 Podcasts: 1/4 Blog entries: 3/4 I reviewed all 1st grade kanji and I'm glad, I did. Until now I always had trouble whenever such a simple thing as a date appeared somewhere. Oh, I understood something like 一月六日 just fine, but being able to actually "read" it was something different altogether. For some reason the words never stuck. I think, I've overcome that problem now :) French/Français Tadoku: 291/300 pages Grammaire: rien Only one more chapter of Harry Potter à l'école des sorciers to read and I'll have finished the book as well as reached my goal for Tadoku. I'm going to read it again, though, with a dictionary. I'm glad I could follow the story so well, but I want to learn some vocabulary, too. That's something I didn't pay any attention to yet. Le mois prochain je vais relire Harry Potter, mais cette fois avec un dictionnaire pour apprendre quelques mots. J'ai trouvé la lecture en français pas si difficile comme je le craignais. C'est pourquoi je vais continuer à lire des livres en français pendant cette année. J'ai encore trois livres à la maison. Ca suffit pour le moment. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

How do you find Greek Assimil compared to Langenscheidt?

If you are enjoying your Easy Greek Reader I'd be very pleased if you could share the
title with me. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

@Cristina: You can't really compare Assimil and Langenscheidt because their method is very
different. But that is exactly why I use both of them. They complement each other quite well. Assimil has a lot of text and audio, but only few grammar explanations and exercises - whereas Langenscheidt has fewer text and audio, but more detailed grammar explanations as well as exercises. Langenscheidt is pretty much a traditional course: first a lesson text and vocabulary list, than that lesson's grammar points and finally some exercises. Assimil claims to lead from A1 to B2 and Langenscheidt up to B1. Well, I have my doubts about reaching B2, but a B1 level with both books might be possible. I've read that some people don't find the Greek Assimil course very interesting compared to other Assimil courses. I can't really comment on that, because that's the first time I use Assimil. But I find both Assimil's and Langenscheidt's texts not especially, well, interesting/funny/whatever. Typical textbook texts, I'd say. @embici: The Greek Easy Readers are divided into five levels with 1 being the easiest and 5 the most difficult level. The one I'm currently reading is called Ποιος είναι ο Α.Μ.; and a level 1 book. Last year I've already read Ξενοδοχείο Ατλαντίς, παρακαλώ. Both of them are little crime stories and I find them rather easy to understand at my current level. There are, of course, some words I have to look up, but that was to be expected. I wanted to read something different from textbooks once in a while. But at such a low level as mine there is not much you can read and understand. So those Easy Readers turned out to be the best solution for that problem. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||
