English. "Ben-Hur" - chapter 1 with audio-book (awful!). Spent abour 4 h working on presentation for training. Training of writing and presentation skills: the first day I had impression I learned nothing new, it was boring; the second day - I have realized what all my presentations are not suitable the most of people don't like too much text on the slides (personally, I like).
French. J'ai commencé "Les trois mousquetaires" pour participer au "book club". J'ai lu 9 chapitres. Je continue "la chartreuse", 60 pages environ. Donc, Fabrice, âpres sa fuit de la citadelle y revient pour être prés de sa bien-aimée. Exist-t-il l'amour pareil? C'est drôle mais ce passage me rappelle "La femme du sable" de Kobo Abé. Il y a pas mal des être humain qui aiment sa prison!
Italian. Ho studiato 2 dialogi di "Voie express Italien".
Japanese. about 30 kanji
German. Beginne "Der Vorleser" (mit paralel Text). Kapitel(?chapter?) 1 und 2.

Be careful not wear to yourself out with too many languages.. Given the large number of languages, do you feel that you retain much of any one language? I'm just asking out of curiosity, not doubting your abilities or anything.. :)

Me too, I am curious, how much I can retain and there is the limit of the languages number ...So I just experiment a lot...I retain really much in passive comprehension, but I think my ability of active using of languages is still poor.

English. Seeing the DVD about Moscow history (in this disk, there are different language versions, so I'll use it a lot.

French. "Les trois mousquetaires" - 29 chapitres. J'ai chanté en peu les chansons de Joe Dassin. C'est drôle comment le chant change l'accent! Quand je parle j'ai l'accent russe fort (sauf si je (ne?) fait spécialement des efforts pour prononcer "comme il faut". Mais la chant impose bon accent: c'est magique.

Spanish. Escuchando Ionatos Angelique "Canta Frida Kahlo"

Italian. Comincio avere dialogo interno. Posso gia discutare con gente un po.

German. "Der Vorleser" (mit English paralel Text). Kapitel 7. Lesen helft auch English Vocabular aneignen.

English. Reading "The fall of the house of Usher" by Edgar Poe. It's hard to read.

Italian. Quando stavo parlando ho avuto piccola problema: ho detto "quiedere" (to say "to ask") e pesavo che me abbia sbaliato perche questo verbo e simile a "chiudere" (to close, shut)

German. Radio hören. Verständnis ist fern nicht.

General observations. It's became interesting: some days I feel really speaking/thinking one language more. Do I speak 3 languages now: English, French, Italian (not taking in consideration Russian)?

English. Seeing the DVD about Moscow history.

French. "Ombre sultan" Assia Djebar. J'ai lu jusqu' à "La soeur". En fait, le seul chose que j'aime dans le livre, c'est les chapitres sur Schéhérazade.

Italian. Ogni giorni ho ripetato 1 dialogo di "Voix express". Stavo provando a spiegare cose scientintifiche alla mia studentessa e discutare degli experimenti. Ascoltavo "Decameron" ("audiobook"). Anche ascoltavo la opera "Lucia di Lammermur".

Japanese. Listening to recording of texts "Read Real Japanese". Reading 2 page of easy parallel text (contes) writing down some useful worlds.

German. "Der Vorleser" (mit English paralel Text). Kapitel 11(halb).
