I found your log Doviende, and I congratulate and encourage you on your endeavors in Swedish. :D It seems like you have some very big goals with that. I'm going to, in fact, update my goals right now, as I think that they would me more realistic.
Instead of shooting for conversational fluency in all of my languages, I'm going to, instead, shoot for conversational fluency in at least 2 of my languages. I don't know which 2 yet, but I have a feeling it is probably going to be involving Russian. German doesn't really count, because I pretty much already have conversational fluency in the German language (thanks to my history with it), so that is not in the running. Just a quick update for my goals.

So I haven't studied for a while, but midterms are coming up, and I am studying my butt off for those. I recently ordered Cortina Russian, and I can't wait until it gets here. It has pattern drills UNLIKE Living Language. It will not be replacing living language though. I think that audio is important and the Cortina Method audio is very difficult and expensive to obtain.
So that's just a little update and I'll be working at a normal pace once midterms are done.

Ok so another little update. I'm awful with German adjectives. I don't really know how they work with respect to endings. However, after looking through a grammar book, I have observed that I NATURALLY know the adjective forms in the nominative and accusative for both after der and ein type specifiers. I do not know the endings that go WITHOUT a specifier. I will probably just drill them with the FSI once I get the chance TONIGHT and get adjectives out of the way. i'm going to do some prepositional practice with Russian on Practice Russian, and then hopefully when I get my Cortina Russian book I can finally just forget about having to study once I go through some pattern drills.

Du hast mich auf You Tube gefunden, jetzt komme ich mal in deinen Log. Ich habe hier ein gutes Übungsbuch, das heißt: Lehr- und Übungsbuch der deutschen Grammatik, Verlag für Deutsch, 1985 (ISBN 3-88532-608-6)
Seite 206 - folgende Übung erstmal im Nominativ:
- kühl... Bier
- rot... Wein
- kalt... Sekt
- eisgekühlt... Wasser
- echt... Obstsaft
- warm... Milch
- erfrischend... Limonade
- schwarz... Tee
- stark... Kaffee
- frisch... Brot
- lecker... Kuchen
- gesalzen... Butter
- geräuchert... Speck
- kalt... Braten
- heiß... Suppe
Und jetzt die gleiche Übung im Akkusativ:
Ich esse.....
oder
Ich trinke....
Falls du diese Übung machen willst, werde ich sie gerne korrigieren! Wenn man hierzu die richtigen Endungen gefunden hat, dann kann man daraus eine Logik ableiten.
Viel Erfolg!
Fasulye

Tut mir leid Fasulye! Bis heute, habe ich das nicht gesehen. Ich werde das heute abend machen. Ich habe Exams die nächste Woche, und habe viel zu tun. Ich habe auch eine Frage. Wann macht man "zu" mit einem Infintiv. Wie: "zu machen", "zu tun", "zu sehen". Ich weiß nicht wann ich das sagen muss. Auf Englisch bitte. Ich würde das nicht auf Deutsch verstehen :)...

Ok so update for Russian. According to FedEx, my Cortina Russian book is in West Virginia, which I am kind of upset about. However, I have been constantly drilling the prepositional in my mind, and I have also been thinking about Russian phrases and such, to get my mind used to the patterns used in Russian. I will definitely be updating more later and maybe posting a little in Russian :).
