It is this one here. It seems to be alright, rather textually centric, which is what I was looking for, comes with a cd of mp3s as well. *edit* having worked with it a bit today, I think that it will be a decent aid.

Dear All,
I hope you have all had a wonderful festive period, and a decent start to the TAC, if you found the time between feasts. Français: I spent a half hour this evening working with the afore mentioned book. Seems pretty good. Have been working on the Written Comprehension section, and will make a start on the others after dinner, maybe. Did an hour or so of reading the book La Peste. Español: One busuu module last night, and another today. Bit of a look through my grammar work book. *edit* I started HP1 in Spanish. Read about two chapters. I am enjoying the feeling of puzzling out the language. I haven't bothered looking up the words I don't know, I just keep reading. Deutsch: *edit* I had forgotten that I started reading my German Grammar last night. Got through about thirty pages or so. Thom.

Fellow HTLALers,
On the eve before I go to Barcelona I will give you a little message to tide you over until we meet again, because I know you can't live without my log posts (at least that is what I like to imagine). Français: I am making good progress on the book La Peste. I have started to do some excercises in my C1/C2 book. Though I will leave it here in France during my little holiday (fear not it is only for three days). Español: A few chapters of HP 1. I went through a page of el mundo reading about the state of Catalan in Spain. 77 words I didn't know, but the pages are chock full of words. So it wasn't too bad. The words didn't impede my understanding anyway. Did a grammar excercise whilst I was waiting for my go at the Departementale du Travail this morning. Deutsch: Nothing really. I hope you are all having a nice festive season, Thom. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Feliç 2009 a tot!
Which is my attempt at wishing you all a Happy 2009 in Catàlan, I had fun whilst there but didn't get much language study done. I did however enjoy seeing the similarities to French that exist in Catàlan, makes me kind of want to delve into it. However, I will restrain myself to dreams of a quadralingual life in Barcelona.... Español (Castellano): I did Pimsleur Spanish 14 and 15 during the flight there. Read a bit of the papers, tried to understand what everyone said to me etc. Deutsch: I just finished doing the first three Assimil Lessons for German. Wrote out everything, did it all nice and everything it it's own book. Français: Moving along with my book, bit on the flight back, and a touch this morning. I will try to get a bit more of each language done this weekend. I start my new job on Monday, so I will see how that affects my studies. I will probably switch my focus back to French with a touch more German, now that my trip to Spain is over. Thom.

Guten Abend,
Voici ce que j'ai fait aujourd'hui pour mes langues: Deutsch: Worked my way through to Lektion 8 of Assimil German *edit* did lesson 8 and half of nine before bed*. I like the start I am off to. I have fun translating the things into French or English, depending on what takes my whimsy. Español: 1 more chapter of HP 1 before I go to sleep *edit* did German instead*. Français: I have had one more lang-8 post corrected. However, aside from that nothing. Hope you're all going well, let me know eh? That's what this is for. Thom.

Language Learners of HTLAL,
Today I didnt get too much study done. I did however have 8 hours of immersion at work today. Does it count? You tell me. Français Had a bunch of compliments on my French as well. Either they have really low expectations, or the people who complain about French acceptance of language learners have really bad French :p. The words that I had to look up today were: Amiante: Turns out to be asbestos. Tutelle: dépendance gênant, surveillance; "Tenir sous son tutelle", regime de protection. Matricielle: relatif aux matrices. Jalon: Piquet servant de marquer distances et alignements. Español: Did one grammar excercise from my book whilst waiting for something to do today. Listened to 3/4 of MT Spanish, the next cd. Listened to some music this evening. German: Tried to start to write my first lang-8 post in German. Then had to work. It is a pain in the arse for studying this work thing. I remain, Thom. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

All,
Français: Today I wrote a lang-8 post out at work, you can find it here. Español: I wrote half of a lang-8 post. Finished the MT CD on the way to work. Deutsch: Wrote a bit more of my lang-8 post, but I realised that I still have a long way to go. I apologise for the brevity of my post tonight, and the repetition of the word post, I am tired. Thom.

My dear Readers,
How go your tacs? For mine: Français: 8 hours of immersion five days a week = 40 hours of listening/speaking practice this week ;) One lang 8 post, Finshed La Peste. Español: I am now a third of the way through HP1 and finding it easier as a I go along. I am not bothering looking things up, but have picked up a fair bit of vcab, at least passively, as I go. German: A few exercises this week, not much. English: Read Kato Lombs book, first English book that I have read for a while. Thom.
