Morning German Did Anki reviews. ~15 minutes. Browsed a few news articles at Deutsche Welle. ~10 minutes. Afternoon French Assimil French with Ease - Reviewed a few lessons from the book, but I fell asleep shortly after, as I was tired, and honestly, I don't recall which lessons I reviewed. I'd say that's a good sign I gained little from the review. ;) ~10 minutes. Evening Russian Assimil Russisch ohne Mühe - Listened to Lessons 8-15. I was frustrated to find that I've again forgotten a number of words in a few of the lessons. So far, Russian words don't seem to have nearly as much "stickiness" for me as do French and German words. To be expected, I suppose, with a Slavic language. ~15 minutes. German Wrote a message to my tutor. ~15 minutes. Edited by josht on 10 October 2008 at 10:24pm 1 person has voted this message useful | |

Afternoon Russian Assimil Russisch ohne Mühe - Reread Lesson 11. ~5 minutes. German Started working through Unkraut vergeht nicht, looking up words I don't know. ~10 minutes. Evening French Assimil French with Ease - Listened to Lessons 29-38 (excluding 35, review lesson) twice each. ~40 minutes. German Reviewed a word list from a few days ago; worked on some new word lists. ~20 minutes. Did Anki reviews. ~5 minutes. Not a whole lot of language activity this weekend, as this coming week is midterm week at my university. Edited by josht on 15 October 2008 at 7:19am 1 person has voted this message useful | |

Afternoon French Worked on French word lists, using Mastering French Vocabulary. Covered 35 words. ~20 minutes. German Reviewed word lists; worked on some new word lists from Using German Vocabulary. ~20 minutes. Evening Russian NPRC - Reread the second half of chapter 8; read chapter up to the vocabulary list. Chapter 9 seems like a rather long one in comparison to the previous ones, so I called it a night at the vocabulary list. I need to review the genitive endings (much) more, and memorize the vocabulary. I should probably quickly run through all of the chapters again at this point, to solidify what I'm learned thus far. Moving forward and tackling new case endings before fully mastering what I've learned so far seems like folly. ~40 minutes.

Afternoon German Did Anki reviews. While there are a few French and Russian cards in my deck, they're so few that I still considering my Anki reviews to be German study. ~10 minutes. Worked on new word lists. ~40 minutes. Evening French French word lists, using Mastering French Vocabulary. Noticing that I'm struggling a lot with getting French words to stick in comparison to German. Gender is also giving me a lot of trouble with French nouns. More exposure needed, I guess. ~30 minutes. Assimil French with Ease - Listened to Lessons 25-34 again. ~15 minutes. Edited by josht on 15 October 2008 at 7:20am 1 person has voted this message useful | |

Morning German Did Anki reviews. ~10 minutes. Worked on some grammar exercises given to me by my tutor. ~15 minutes. French Looking back through my log, I noticed that I didn't do the active wave for lessons 20-30 for Assimil's French with Ease; or at least, I didn't log them. So, I did the active wave for Lesson 20, in writing (I'm at work). I'll do the oral after work. ~15 minutes. Russian Assimil Russisch ohne Mühe - Listened to Lessons 8-11. ~10 minutes. Evening French Assimil French with Ease - Active wave for Lessons 21-25. ~45 minutes. German Added a number of word list words to Anki. ~15 minutes.

How proficient are you roughly in these languages? I'm very curious how this goes.
