Anya’s 2019 log

[Anya]

Japanese:
Still reading “Rage of angels” but more intensively now.

Danish:
I’ve read a lot of discussion about Duolingo and I decide to try it for Danish: for an absolute beginner it’s not so bad.

Swedish:
I keep on working on “Assimil”. Pronunciation is not easy, it’s difficult to get used to hear “k” as “tch”. I also start to watch a series, “Akta Manniskor” (http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x2s8f7u
) and listen to Melissa Horn’s songs

My job is my all (except some week-ends in Spain): I am having a very busy time, feeling exhausted…so had no time to update the log or keep the eye on the forum

Chinese: 6WC accomplished, I am number 14 (29 hrs)

Greek, Basque: listen to a lot of music. I’ve discovered Χάρις Αλεξίου and Benito Lertxundi.

Spanish:three week-ends in Spain in February…and still reading travelling guides…

German:
Ich lese abends „Tintenherz“ (Kapitel 1 gelesen: ich liebe Haus mit Bücher stapelten überall!), ich mag, und andere: „Meine schöne Mörderin“, „Brief einer unbekannten“.

Mandarin :

Spanish
Hoy escuchaba bastante los audiolibros : "Arte de la guerra" en chino
(http://www.loyalbooks.com/book/孫子兵法-by-Sunzi) y "Historia de Doña Juana "(http://www.loyalbooks.com/book/historia ... -anonymous).
No entiendo mucho en chino pero es bueno de escuchar audiolibros: tengo mas ganas de leer el libro.
Doña Juana era la hija de los Reyes Católicos, era conocida como “Juana La Loca”.

This year, I have been traveling two times in Basque country (and I would like to travel more). So I include Basque to my SuperChallenge list and I found some materials: films, “Little Prince” and some touristic brochures . I also use Clozemaster. Today I’ve guess 4 sentences correctly:
Filmea ez zen entzunda neukana.
The film was not what I had thought it was.

Gabon eta amets gozoak.
Good night and sweet dreams.

Honako hau lapitz bat da.
This is a pencil.

Tatoeba honi "Saioa itxi" botoia falta zaio.
Tatoeba has no "Log Out" button.

Catalan

He treballat massa, necessito descansar...He començat “Polseres vermelles“. M’agrada molt però vull a buscar a alguna altra pel·lícula.


I worked hard and I need to relax a little bit... I’ve started to watch “Polseres vermelles“. I like the series but I would like to look for another materials

Finnish
I've signed up for "Finnisch mit extra Mühe" project. In the nearest future I think I will get the Assimil course. Anyway, I will start with a couple of textbooks waiting for me for years in my shelves. I would like to find some bilingual text. Three books are available in Farkas Translation site:
