Language Learning Review for February

Indonesian

Complete Indonesian – I didn’t bring my book to France with me. I also didn’t finish setting up my Memrise course for the vocab so this didn’t happen.

Memrise – I did a great job keeping my streak in January – and did this in February too…except that I lost my streak somehow because of the time difference (an hour?! How is that possible?!)

Facebook – I wanted to go deep with a Facebook post in Indonesian each day but didn’t have time for this and it wasn’t a priority so it didn’t really happen.

Language Reading Challenge

Reading Les Miserables – This didn’t really happen. I started with good intentions. Managed to read chapter one in one go on the train, then didn’t get time to sit and read the whole of chapter two in one go which always makes it difficult to follow a book for me.

But beyond that, I did feel that it was kind of a dull book. Also I discovered Modern Family on French Netflix, which isn’t on UK Netflix. So I spent my evenings catching up on that instead – with French subtitles I might add!

However, the original February challenge was “translation of a book from your native language”. So I picked up a Goosebumps from a second-hand bookshop here that at the time of writing I’m almost done with.

I’ll be finishing it off on my journey home to the UK. I’ll also share soon how I’ve read it and what techniques I’ve used to make the most of my time on it.

Language Learning Goals for March

Indonesian

I’ll be sticking with (or rather getting back to) Indonesian in March. It’s likely to be my last month focused solely on the language at the moment, but we’ll see.

I’m at a point now of absorbing everything I’ve taken in so far. March will be mostly about vocab revision and acquisition, and producing the language through speaking with italki and writing with Lang-8.

Here’s my goals…

Complete Indonesian – Going home, I’ll be revisiting my main course book and completing the Memrise vocab course I’m working on.

Memrise – Gotta keep that 5 word a day streak!

italki – To get me speaking again, I’m booking one session a week with my tutor.

Lang-8 – Lang-8 is one of those tools that I’ve known about for ages but never really taken advantage of. I’m going to try it this month.

Language Reading Challenge

The theme for Shannon’s Language Reading Challenge in March is a book about someone who learns a language (can be fiction or non-fiction).

I got sent the book When in French a few months back, which is about the author Lauren Collin’s story learning French after falling in love with a Frenchman.

So to keep me from getting French withdrawal symptoms when I get home, I’ll read this book in March.
