It's even more painful (siomotteikiru's word for what to expect for the first few hours). Instead of reading the book first in English to make sure you know what it's all about (while listening to the sounds of the target language in the background), then trying to match the 2 versions (words, phrases, sentences, paragraphs) before attempting to make any kind of sense of the unknown, MarcoDiAngelo plunges right in at the deep and and compares both languages, carefully. And, as he found out when trying his method on a non-Slavic language, painfully and ineffectively. His method does work well for closely related languages though. Very well indeed, because we only have to pay attention to the differences, variations on a theme, we're not grappling with the Great Unknown. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||||||||

Is German closely related to Serbian? Hungarian is non-Indoeuropean language; for IE languages this method works just fine. And Siomo wrote that for absolute begginers first chapters or stories word-for-word texts should be made. I am a begginer in Hungarian (simply because it's not an ordinary European language), and I lack such materials.

You don't speak Croatian? So you're also a liar?

Even I probably understood it, except for "obisaju".
I think reineke is skeptical about LR in general. Edited by frenkeld on 12 January 2009 at 1:50pm 1 person has voted this message useful | |||||||||

I'd rather say he is being rude. It means по обычаю.
