Re: The Answers to Discussion Topics
Q: Is there a place for repeated reading?
A: Yes. Water meter readings, gas meter readings, electricity meter readings, about once a month. If your meter reader is fluent in one of your target languages, you could brush up on your numbers. Then there are parking meters. You could practice your hours and minutes. And as a bonus, if you are short of time, you could buy some more.

Q: Is there a place for repeated reading?
A: Yes... it's the same place that holds all the other gimmicks for people who think that they should retain every single word listened to or read along the way in learning a language.

Most people use the library, but a bookstore is good, too.

Q: How far can you go with word lists?
A: Once I went from my living room to my bedroom with all my word lists. They were not too heavy, so I could have gone even further.
