Ukrainian :
Today, I reviewed chapter 7 of the Teach Yourself book and copied another text.

Français :
Aujourd'hui, je lus le chapitre VI du livre VIII du tome III des Misérables.

Català :
Avui, vaig terminar el llibre Parlons catalan. Vaig llegir el poema "El neu qui dorm" de Josep Sebastià Pons. Crec que memoritzaré-ho, perquè vull memoritzar almens un poema en totes les llengües que conec, i aquest era el millor del llibre.

I read some of Misérables but got bored and gave up. Good for you for persisting.
Also I read Germania and Agricola, which are rather different in tone from the Annals and Histories, of which I have read only a bit, but not read any of Pliny the Elder. I look forward to your opinion of it.

I agree : the more I read of Les Misérables the less I like it. Hugo was a talented author who created a deeply flawed novel.

Latin :
More Pliny. His writing style is less easy than that of Tacitus and his anthropology is certainly a lot more... unusual.

Català :
Vaig arribar a memoritzar "El neu que dorm". Aviat, començaré l'únic llibre català que tenc.

Français :
Aujourd'hui, je lus le chapitre XI du livre VIII du tome III des Misérables.

Hier et aujourd'hui, je lus les chapitres XII et XIII du livre VIII du tome III des Misérables. En plus, je commençai mon cours de français à l'université aujourd'hui.

Ukrainian :
Today I started lesson 11 of the Teach Yourself book and copied another passage from the book of easy texts.

Català :
Jo no tenc que un llibre català, Història de l'art català, que vaig començar. La secció que vaig llegir avui parlava de l'arquitectura dels visigots. Era més fàcil que pensava.

Latin :
I also had my first Latin class today, where we discussed the section of the Natural History which we read. I think this class will be better than last year.
