Ukrainian :
Today I copied another text from my book of easy texts and read the grammatical notes in the Teach Yourself book.

Latin :
Today I read Catullus's 12 poem, which was somewhat entertaining, I must admit.

Français :
Aujourd'hui, je lus le chapitre V du livre VII du tome IV des Misérables, qui fut très court.

Català :
Avui, vaig llegir una nova secció de la Història de l'art català.

Italiano :
Poiché oggi è il compleanno del poeta italiana Gabriele d'Annunzio, io ho letto il suo poema "Un Ricordo". Questo è un poema bastanza corte, ma ancora bello.

Français :
Aujourd'hui, je lus le chapitre II du livre VIII du tome IV des Misérables et les chapitres X, XI et XII de Maria Chapdelaine. J'aime le livre de plus en plus, bien que le ton condescendant du narrateur revient de temps à temps : le reste est assez bon que, en total, j'aime le livre.

Latin :
This week's reading hour was a somewhat random collection of Catullus poems : we read carmina 32, 43, 51, 58 and 84. I thought 84 in particular was quite funny : I certainly would not like to get on Catullus' bad side.

Ukrainian :
Today I read the first dialogue from Teach Yourself lesson 17 and copied another dialogue from my other book.

Català :
Avui, vaig llegir una nova secció de Història de l'art català.

Latin :
Today I read carmina 15 and 16 of Catullus. Carmen 16 is, in my opinion, quite interesting. Despite often being viewed as nothing other than "that funny poem where Catullus tells his critics to suck it, literally", the actual point - that "although the pious poet must be chaste, his verses do not have to be" very much ought to be kept in mind when reading the rest of his poems.

Ukrainian :
Today, I reread the dialogue of lesson 17 of the Teach Yourself course and copied another text from my book of easy texts.

Català :
Avui, vaig perseguir la lectura del meu llibre.

Français :
Aujourd'hui, je lus les chapitres XIII et XIV de Maria Chapdelaine et le premier chapitre du livre IX du tome IV des Misérables. Malheureusement pour moi, le récit s'est terminé pour le moment et la harangue politique s'est commencée de nouveau.

Français :
Aujourd'hui, je lus le chapitre II du livre VIII du tome IV des Misérables. Ce livre est vraiment long...

Català :
Avui, vaig llegir una nova secció de Història de l'art català.

Ukrainian :
Today I copied another text from my book of easy texts and read more grammatical notes from the Teach Yourself book.

Latin :
Today I read carmina 17 and 21 of Catullus. Neither were particularly remarkable. Unfortunately, my book does not have carmina 18, 19 and 20 as they are considered spurious by many. I would still have liked to read them, however and, in my opinion, if a "fake" poem manages to fool people for such a long time as to become considered an integral part of a greater work, even if it is "found out" it still ought to be presented with the rest of that work, as what humanity understood the Catullus corpus to be for centuries included 18, 19 and 20. I suppose this is what I get for buying a modern edition...

Entre hier et aujourd'hui, je lus jusqu'à la fin du livre X du tome IV des Misérables, ce qui est moins impressionnant qu'il semble. En plus, je terminai Maria Chapdelaine. C'était magnifique.
