Good job!
Ton français est très clair, ton élocution un peu lente mais pas de faute de grammaire du tout! Congratulations! Just an idiomatic expression to remember : talking about your presentation, you said "I hope it pleased you , but if it didn't , ..." You can't translate literally " if it didn't ", you have to use "si ce n'est pas le cas" or "le cas échéant " (more formal language) :) 3 persons have voted this message useful | |

Your pronunciation is excellent, à mon avis.

Merci pour tous vos commentaires. C'est vrai que j'ai parlé lentement...plus lentement que d'habitude. :-)

Been about a week since I last wrote so I'll give an update.
I started Assimil's Perfectionnement Espagnol and have been doing one lesson per day consistently. Today was Lessons 9 and 2 (using my usual "cyclic" review method). I listen to RTVE at least a bit a day but it is still really difficult. Too much and I start to get frustrated at how far my Spanish comprehension has to go to match my French. :-) I've had very good luck with conversations lately. At the Meetup on Wednesday I chatted for a while with a French guy from Toulon. Have had lots of good discussions on Verbling in both my TLs and am doing one paid practice session per week on Skype for each language as well. Also talked for about an hour in French with sctroyenne in Google Hangouts. Read some interesting and amusing stuff in French that I will share here at some point. 1 person has voted this message useful | |

Second tutoring session for Spanish today, which went very well. Mostly practicing the imperfect subjunctive. It feels pretty nice when your Spanish tutor asks you "Nunca has vivido en un país hispanohablante?"
Still consistent with Perfectionnement Espagnol. Though today I accidentally skipped Lesson 12 and did Lesson 13 instead (I later realized my mistake and did 12 as well). :-) 1 person has voted this message useful | |

I had been working on Assimil's Perfectionnement Espagnol but after a few lessons that were not that interesting I haven't touched it in several days. Instead I have been listening to RNE, mostly La Observadora and A Hombros De Gigantes. It's kind of funny that I often have more trouble understanding the host of the latter show than I do understanding his guests, because he sometimes talks super-fast. The listener calls on La Observadora can also be a real pain to understand, and I mostly have to rely on the host's summary of what the caller just said rather than the call itself. But both shows are usually at least comprehensible enough to me to be interesting.
After interacting with people from a bunch of different Hispanophone countries, I think my favorite accent, and the one I would most like to imitate, is that of Colombia. I have been thinking about preparing to take a C1 exam in French later this year, more simply to set myself a challenge and encourage myself to advance than because having the certification would be of any practical relevance. 1 person has voted this message useful | |

Ok, j'ai pris la décision. Je passerai le DALF C1 dans six mois, le 13 décembre. À partir de maintenant, que du français dans ce journal. :-)
Hier j'ai contacté une de mes anciens professeurs d'italki et je lui ai demandé si elle avait préparé des étudiants pour le DALF. Elle m'a dit que oui et m'a donné le lien d'un site avec des exemples de sujets : lien. Je vais faire les exemples et lui dire quels sont mes points forts / points faibles. C'est assez rare que j'aie quatre heures à la suite alors je me contenterai de faire les exemples partie par partie. Ce matin j'ai fait la première épreuve du premier exemple sur le site, compréhension de l'oral. Ma note : 20 / 25.
