Hi French team members! I'm looking forward to following your logs this year. I'll be moving to Lorraine, actually quite close to the border with Germany, so hopefully I'll get to practice my German as well (and maybe even learn some Lorraine Franconian!).
I was going to write a post with some better goals and plans for either German or French today, but I don't have them yet. I do have some related goals that I'll put in this post, though. This year, I'd like to become more involved in the polyglot community. I have been reading this forum for probably 8 (?) years now, but I don't really participate much. I even think I joined a TAC at one point, but I fizzled out (on writing in the logs, not on the actual studying). My goal this year is to be an active TAC team member and maybe even to go to the Polyglot Gathering in Berlin if I can get up the courage! 5 persons have voted this message useful | |

Hi teammates; thanks for dropping by! Okay, time for some plans.
Français Je vais essayez d'écrire en français, mais mon français n'est encore pas très bien :). Les corrections sont bienvenues! Ma histoire avec le français: J'ai commencé à étudier le français il y a environs 3 ans. Je l'ai étudié pendant un an, mais ensuite je l'ai laissé par pouvoir étudier l'allemand. Maintenant, je le comprends bien, et quand je suis en France je peux survivre sans l'anglais, mais mon vocabulaire est très petit et je fait beaucoup d'erreurs et interférances avec le catalan et l'espagnol. J'ai aussi du mal à avoir une vraie conversation en français. Mes objectifs: Je vais déménager en France en août ou septembre. Je voudrais que mon français soit assez bien pour ne jamais avoir de parler anglais et pour connaître des vrais amis. Dans un avenir lointain (très lointain), je voudrais avoir le niveau d'un locuteur natif. Ma stratégie: Jusqu'au milieu de février, je n'aurais pas beaucoup de temps pour étudier, mais je voudrais terminer Duolingo et essayer d'écouter beaucoup de français. En février, je ferais des projets plus spécifiques, mais je vais utiliser des ressources suivantes:
Oops -- I forgot the English translation! I started learning French about 3 years ago. After about a year, I stopped in order to study German. Now I can understand it and in France I can survive in French, but my vocabulary is small and I make a lot of mistakes and interferences / transfers from Spanish and Catalan. I also can't really have a real conversation. I'm moving to France in August or September, and my goal is to speak enough French that I don't have to ever use English and that I can make friends in French. In the very distant future I'd like to get native-level French. I'm going to be busy until the middle of February, but I'd like to finish Duolingo and listen to a lot of France from now until then. Afterwards, I'll make specific plans, including some of the following: exchange partner in French, French meetup, videos and podcasts, French course in my town, intensive French courses in April and/or August.

Deutsch
Ich lerne Deutsch seit ungefähr ein und halb Jahren, aber ich kann noch nicht so gut schreiben (ich kann viel besser verstehen und sprechen). Ich glaube, meine größte Probleme mit Deutsch sind mein Wortschatz und meine Grammatik. Ich werde Deutsch lernen nur bis ich in Frankreich wohne, und danach werde ich nur wiederholen. Bis Februar habe ich keine Zeit, aber ab Februar werde ich einen Kurs besuchen, und ich möchte auch ein Sprachtandem machen. Weitere Details folgen im Februar! English translation: I've been studying German for about a year and a half. I'm not that good at writing but I can speak and understand pretty well. My biggest problems are my small vocab and my poor grammar. I'm planning on studying German only until I move to France; then I'll just review. I don't have time until February to study German, but then I'll take a course and hopefully also an exchange. I'll update my plan in February! 1 person has voted this message useful | |

Avui no tinc gaire a dir, volia tenir ja un plan pel castellà i el català, però encara no en tinc. I com he dit abans, fins mitjans de febrer no penso estudiar gaire. Però aquesta setmana he vist vàries series en francès (Simpsons i Engrenages) i alemany (SOKO, Germanys Next Topmodel) i escoltat podcasts en francès (Journal en français facile, Atelier numérique, Monumental). Espero seguir escoltant molt fins a febrer, crec que m'ajuda molt, encara que cal que millori també les meves habilitats actives.
Els meus objectius per la setmana que vé: 1. seguir escoltant molt en francés i alemany 2. fer una gravació parlant en castellà (i potser català) per veure què cal millorar del meu accent 3. plans d'estudis pel castellà i el català English translation: Today I don't have much to say; I wanted to have a plan for Spanish and Catalan but I don't have one yet. And like I said before, until the middle of February I'm not planning on studying much. But this week I watched a few shows in French (Simpsons and Engrenages) and German (SOKO, Germanys Next Topmodel) and listened to podcasts in French (Journal en français facile, Atelier numérique, Monumental). I hope to keep doing lots of listening until February because I think it helps a lot. I'll also need to improve my active skills sometime though. My goals for this week: 1. keep listening to stuff in French and German 2. make a recording speaking in Spanish (and maybe Catalan) to see where my accent needs improvement 3. study plans for Spanish and Catalan 1 person has voted this message useful | |

Ich möchte euch mal erzählen, wie ich bis jetzt Deutsch gelernt habe. Ich hoffe, es kann hilfreich sein! Es ist auch gut für mich zu errinern was ich bis jetzt gemacht habe, um zu wissen was funktioniert oder nicht.
In jeder Stufe habe ich 1-2 Monaten gearbeitet (außer die 4. und die 5.). 1. Assimil + Extra auf Deutsch 2. Deutsch Interaktiv + Grüße aus Deutschland 3. Serien, usw. auf Deutsche Welle (Jojo sucht das Glück, Warum Nicht, Ticket nach Berlin, usw.) 4. Harry Potter Buch + Hörbuch (4-5 Monaten) 5. Intensivkurs in Deutschland (2 Wochen, Niveaustufe C1) Jetzt kann ich fast alles verstehen, obwohl meine Grammatik nicht perfekt ist (und mein Wortschatz zu klein ist!). Wenn ich das alles noch mal machen würde, würde ich mich mehr auf Grammatik und aktive Fähigkeiten konzentrieren. Aber ich denke, dass was ich gemacht habe, war sehr gut um ein gutes Verstandnis schnell zu kriegen. What I wrote is probably full of errors, so corrections are welcome! English: I'd like to tell you guys how I've learned German so far. I hope it'll be helpful. It's also good for me to remember what I've done so I know what works or not. I worked for 1-2 months in each phase (except 4 and 5). 1. Assimil + Extra auf Deutsch 2. Deutsch Interaktiv + Grüße aus Deutschland 3. Series, etc. on Deutsche Welle (Jojo sucht das Glück, Warum Nicht, Ticket nach Berlin, usw.) 4. Harry Potter book + audiobook (4-5 months) 5. Intensive course in Germany (2 weeks, level C1) I'll try to update this later with links if I remember; that's probably more useful! 1 person has voted this message useful |
