Haha at least you got them in the spam folder! I have to F5 the forum several times a day because the only thread I got notifications for was the first I subscribed to, Tixhiidon's log. No other threads got me to receive notifications (not even my own ones!), no matter how I always leave the notify box checked.
I'm glad you didn't drop Georgian for Hebrew =D I've been through periods of higher levels of stress but now it seems I just climbed one step more above the plateau, and things start to make sense even at the cumbersome dialogues of Hewitt's Learner's grammar.

That's weird! Hopefully the email situation will get worked out soon...
I would never drop Georgian for Hebrew! Hebrew is not a lot of work for me, it's just a
language that I use sometimes. :) I've never actually "studied" it that much per se, and
I don't feel a need to now.
That's good that Georgian is getting easier for you. It is tiring, especially with all
the books you're using! Keep at it! I certainly will, you can count on that. :D Actually,
I hadn't even noticed how much time I spent away from studying until you mentioned it.
Times flies...

Thanks onkel xiaoma, I think I've already used this book, if that's the Lehrbuch der Georgischen Sprache that you mean. I couldn' take the most out of it because I can't read German yet, but I've learned a lot indeed. I've also used Goethe-Verlag's book2 for Georgian.

Today's final text from Hewitt's lesson 15 was a poem, and nearly all words got translated at the glossary. Once again, I don't see the point in translating each word individually and not to translate the text as a whole. The glossary doesn't always help because words get inflected and acquire different meanings in context. Anyway, I'm coming close to an end with this book and it is still very useful as a grammar reference, it covers some topics even more extensively and with more examples than Aronson's, so once I'm done I may resort to it for missing topics now and then.

Yes, that's the book that I mean, there are also some vocabulary books with conjugated verbs - in German though... ;)
