We are are beggining our sixth week of French language studies at Inlingua (pictured above) this week! We have been very encouraged that we are hearing more and more French that is being spoken each day. We are finding that as we are traveling on the train or if we are just out and about walking through town, to really listen to what words / phrases we are able to hear people speaking around us. It's great practice for us. We have also found that we are reading billboards and signs (traffic, buisness, etc.) all the time, to figure out; what is this ad all about? Each morning when we travel on the train, usually someone has left a newspaper behind....so, naturally we pick it up to read as best we can (of the vocabulary and present indicative verbs we have learned) about the daily news in the local area, the weather and also the world news.
