We had a unit quiz Saturday covering verbs. After the test I chatted with many classmates and they’re all feeling like I do. As we went through each type of verb they all made sense. I could identify and translate each one. When we lumped them all together and did a test on the whole thing, someone put all those distinctions in a blender and hit ‘frapee’. They blurred into one.

Still, our teacher said in class “You aren’t going to learn a language in six weeks, that just isn’t possible. But you will get introduced to it and pick up some tools to help understand it.” That was a comfort. A chapter a day is too much. No one could be expected to get it all in that time period at that speed. Besides, I learn by doing typically so just let me translate so text and I’m happy.
