Thank you! Do you have any books that you have ordered from there that you would recommend?

TYI 11 done today, and found some common phrases that I plan to learn. I'm having some difficulty remembering prepositions, and I have no dictionary that indicates what case they take, so I think I will have to look into that in my grammar book one of these days.

Finally something else than TYI; an article! I've read this article and written down all the words I couldn't immediately figure out what they were, with several idioms connected to them. I realized this dictionary wasn't that bad and actually managed to find most words!
It's about the murders in Macedonia, by the way ;)
More articles to come, just have to finish that TYI as well... And do some grammar.

TYI 12 done, and some repetition of verb conjugations. Need to make more verb cards though (or, er, sheets, I haven't actually cut out my cards yet) and revise some grammar since apparantly I do suck at it >_< I will read some article tomorrow, and pay attention to the grammar.

Hmm. Seems I forgot to note my progress here.
I read another article, on an attack on a woman in Denmark, this one. I made a detailed word lists for it, not just with words but with all the examples that came along with the words in this online dictionary.
Also typed and printed all the irregular and strong verbs TYI have brought up so far and made verb cards. Now I just have to use those cards! Today I have done perhaps half of TYI 13, as well as written a silly journal post at www.lang-8.com that no one will be very likely to correct since that place probably isn't full of Icelanders.
