Vous avez étudié beaucoup d'heures ces dernières jours, Rob. Je suis jaloux.

Bon travail,
Ricardo.

French: 3hrs 30mins (MT Language Builder, vocab [+193])
German: 1hr 10mins (Adjective Endings and Prepositions)

Spent most of my time on a sheet of the top 1000 most important French phrases and words. Reviewed adjective endings and preposition cases from an old Teach Yourself German book I have.

French: 2hrs 15mins (MT Language Builder)
German: 1hr 30mins (Deutsche Welle TV)

Spent some time watching the Deutsche Welle broadcast on the Internet at my fiancée's house - good to relax with some native materials after doing mainly vocab and exam preparation this week. The MT Language Builder course for French is around 90% absorbed now.

Week 1 - Progress



Comments:
More time was spent on French this week than German. Going to try and even that out next week. Pretty happy with time spent so far.

French: 1hr 50mins (MT Language Builder, MT Advanced, France24)
German: 1hr 30mins (Deutsche Welle TV)

Spent some time again watching the Deutsche Welle broadcast and a little bit of
France24's broadcast. Had our engagement party tonight, turns out that hosting 120 people
doesn't leave much time in the day for language study! Managed to squeeze in a few
sessions of Michel Thomas though.

French: 3hr 50mins (MT Language Builder, MT Advanced, vocab reviews)
German: 2hr 25mins (Vocab reviews, reading extracts)

Spent time today doing vocab reviews, and practising my French writing by working through the MT Language Builder transcript. I looked at the English, translated it vocally into French, then attempted to write it down. The ones that I got wrong, either through translation or misspelling, were added to cards in the Leitner system.

French: 1hr 15mins (MT Advanced)
German: 2hr 00mins (Siddharta by Herman Hesse)

Took a break from French today, besides my regular listenings to Michel Thomas whilst in transit. Started reading Siddharta by Herman Hesse - quite an enjoyable way to study.

French: 1hr 30mins (MT Advanced)
German: 2hr 00mins (Siddharta by Herman Hesse, Deutsche Welle Radio, Letter-
writing, Phone call)

Further repetition on past and future tenses with Michel. Listened to the Deutsche Welle
Radio broadcast online at my fiancée's house, and wrote a long email to a friend, in an
attempt to restart a local Stammtisch that dissolved late last year. Also had a phone
call in German with the Goethe Institut to arrange my upcoming Zertifikat Deutsch exam.
