You'll get those to stick pretty soon I'm sure. Is bald giving bald giving you trouble too hehe. Try saying them
in your head with a fat German accent and maybe that will help separate them for you. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

For bald, somehow the phrase "bis bald" is stuck in my head, so that helps.
I will try the German accent trick. Today: Assimil: Lesson 30 + Lesson 29 review. (A lot of new constructs). Begegnungen A1: Page 130. Lot of verb prefixed verbs. aufmachen-ausmachen are tripping me, cant see the logic behind the words. And how does one get the meaning of anfangen from fangen?? Lextra Vokab: Went through section 12.1 (basic), the first pass. For the example sentences, dictionaried many of the unknown words. The example sentences seem to be at the B1 level unfortunately. Still, I tried to make out the gist of the sentences. Will photocopy and paste the copies around the room to review at random.

Assimil lesson 31 + Review 30.
Composed an email to teacher regarding some German questions I had from the stuff I have been working on. The email also had some German sentences that I constructed, so I am counting this as study time. Lextra Vokab: briefly went over the first page of 12.1 again. Possesive artikels and possesive pronouncs: Stared at the tables. Realized the plural of "du" has "ihr" only in the nominative personal pronoun case (other ihrs only occur with sie/Sie), so gonna cut that out from the tables. Screw nominative ihr. Begegnungen A1: Pages 131, 132. ~~~~~~~~~ Today marks day 10 of my intensive German studies in the winter holidays, with no breaks. I am saturated, and also need to work on my Arbeit studies, so German study will have to be sharply curtailed. For the next day or two, no new German material, only review, if at all.

Good to see you plugging away at the lessons. Are you using Anki or something like it to build up vocabulary?

Not yet. But I am planning to get an android device, and load up Anki on it. And go for walks with it. I also have the Lextra Vocab book. I plan to photocopy section by section and stick up the pages in the room to review frequently. Just sitting and reviewing is so so boring, and there are other things to do. I did the sticking up strategy for adjective declinations, and it worked well. There are always a few minutes when I am microwaving food, or brushing my teeth at night. OT: I made a thread on memorization strategies at http://how- to-learn-any-language.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?T ID=37852 Edited by Gemuse on 14 January 2014 at 12:15am 2 persons have voted this message useful | |||

Menschen A2.1 Lesson 1: Noted down the definitions in the lesson wordlist from dict, and
also a few example sentences. Now I have to go over the lesson. Sigh. The course will be over in another 4 weeks, and there are 12 lessons in the book (we are midway in the book, but I have slacked off on working from the course book. There is also a test at the end of 4 weeks. I will do two lessons per week to try to catch up. Assimil will have to be put on hold. It is extremely annoying that Heuber will come out with the Glossar for the book only in November, more than a year after the release of the book. Makes no sense. 1 person has voted this message useful |
