Unfortunately I missed the Spanish class yesterday. - Thanks to the telecommunication company, that told us they would finally come to give us an internet connection. But the technician didn't show up. It's by far not the first time they're not getting their sh*t done.
I signed up for a half Super Challenge and ordered Odininlapsi. So I will take part in the read-along!
To those watching films with subtitles in L2: Do you really read the subtitles when you actually understand what is being said?
For me it feels like I would simply ignore the text below as long as I understand the spoken language good enough. So I tried to watch some TV series in French instead of English, with Finnish subtitles. Although I never learned French, I could understand a few words here and there. (That was not the plan.) But I focussed a lot more on the subtitles.
