They have REALLY updated this book.

If they really had updated that book, then the next line should be something like because I'm not Donald Trump. Not everything I do is meant to prove my dick size. Btw I'm gay lol.

Yeah. Though I am worried about this whole "bigger dick" contest Trump and Kim Jong-un have going.

Fair enough. Everybody is worried about that. Well, at least when they remember to worry about it.

Seeing as you've got a good lead on me i feel like asking how you find Assimil for Hebrew.

I've noticed some of your questions/comments in the Hebrew subforum, hence my question.

It's OK so far.

Nothing. Just curious.

I do like the pacing so far. It seems well put together this far. I'm still annoyed by the niqqud overusage though. :P

Les 500 exercises de phonétique (page 129/203)

I started watching the third season of Fais pas ci, fais pas ça and watched another episode of Pékin Express.

(es)

Gramática práctica del español I (Unit 42/50)

I've subscribed to a few RTVE podcasts (I can listen to them while going to work).

So far so good. The book doesn't go into many details anyway, it's just a quick introduction.

I'll be going to London for a few days, so I'm not doing anything language-related until next Wednesday or so (apart from my daily Anki reviews). I hope to buy some new language books while I'm there though... :silly:

Surely you should be able to practise languages in London, at least English?
Please correct my mistakes!
