It’s been a serious few weeks. I haven’t posted for a bit on the weekly updates, so there could be a lot to cover.
My German class (B1.2) is going well. I’m really starting to understand more of the German language structure and patterns. I’m finally starting to get Nominative/Accusative/Dative and how adjective endings become what they based on article changes.
Past tense is still very rough, especially in sentences with multiple clauses. There was also a whirlwind of logical operators that I need to practice for a few solid weeks.
I’m still churning through Angelika Bohn’s German language books. I’m on a B1/B2 that’s just pushing my vocabulary a touch more than I wanted.
My ability to listen to spoken language is getting better, but I still get hung up translating in my head and miss the rest of the sentence. Holding it all in there while the person is still speaking is rough.
I’ve been doing much better in shops and stores with both conversation speaking & listening, as well as vocab on items & checkout systems.
I can do this. I have to. In 11 months I need my B1 test certificate in hand for my early residency application. That’ll be an awesome day!
