Day Sixteen
Having computer problems (I now have no USB), hence the late update. Watched an episode of Naruto - still can't understand a lot of the Japanese. Studied 8 Esperanto sentences (new) and 10 Russian sentences (these are mostly short dialogs) - not much, but it's something. Listened to radio Svoboda for an hour 15. Read some of A Japanese Reader - lessons 1 - 8, I think. 1 person has voted this message useful | |

Day Seventeen
Learnt 53 new Japanese words - mostly memorized. Studied 5 new Esperanto and 10 Russian sentences. Studied 72 kanji and did 2 pages of writing practice (with fude, as usual). Learnt 10 new kanji - good progress with these. Did lessons 7 - 10 of A Japanese Reader - I've made good progress with katakana; I can read it a lot more fluently now.

Day Eighteen
Flash cards: 239 repetitions - catching up here, but I still need to sort things out a bit. Russian Pimsleur 21. Did most of Ruslan workbook Lesson 8 - probably at least 2 hours on this. Spent perhaps 10 minutes reading in Esperanto from the Esperanto Wikipedia - I could understand most of this pretty well. Off to read some more of A Japanese Reader soon if I'm not too tired. Tomorrow I intend to finish Ruslan Lesson 8 and do some katakana writing practice. Edit: I've been doing Ruslan lesson 8, not 7.

Day Nineteen
Flash cards: 70 repetitions, including 13 new Esperanto sentences. Did the rest of Lesson 8 from the Ruslan workbook. Did half a page of Japanese writing (short translations). Did a page of katakana writing practice - not with fude this time. Finished lesson 3 of the Lernu lessons - will move on to lesson 4 tomorrow. Wrote a post to the Lernu forums in Esperanto. Started studying the dative case in Russian - after this, I only have the instrumental to go. Had a two hour Russian Class Edited by farrioth on 21 May 2008 at 5:05am 1 person has voted this message useful | |

Day Twenty
Flash cards - 164 repetitions + 183 new - I've caught up with these now, but I've got some new words still to add in. Half a page of Japanese writing - short translations Read part of a book about kanji - mostly about their origins and so on. One hour Japanese class I have a Russian test on Thursday, so I'll have to put in some more effort studying tomorrow. I hope to get Lesson 9 of the Rusaln workbook done by Thursday.

Day Twenty-one
Big Russian day today, since I have my test tomorrow. Flash cards: 123 repetitions + 71 new Russian words. Everything memorized now (well, for now). Did two pages of Japanese writing - short translations. Reviewed Russian case endings - I'm pretty comfortable with these (at least singular inanimate), but a bit scratchy on some neuter endings and the dative, which I've just learnt. Read over NPRC Lesson 6, but didn't do the exercises. Did Ruslan lesson 9 computer exercises. Did the listening exercises for Ruslan lesson 9 and about half the written work - I'll finish this tomorrow. Had a one hour Japanese class.

Day Twenty-two
Well, my Russian test was harder than expected - I think everyone felt that - but I got through it all okay. I could remember all the grammar points pretty well, but the reading section in the test had some words that I hadn't learnt. Almost all of Ruslan lesson 9 workbook One page of Japanese short translations A short piece of writing in Japanese A small amount of kanji writing practice - more to do here Did another short review of Russian grammar Had a one hour Japanese class Had a two hour Russian class 1 person has voted this message useful |
