Just telling you that I've added two more Chinese learner to
my Bloglines (over there on the side, if you're actually reading this as a blog rather than as a feed), both of whom mentioned
just now by the aforementioned
Chris.
So, next week could be the resumption of formal lessons at
UCL Language Centre. That's if enough other people sign up. Meanwhile, desperately nervous about having forgotten the whole bloody lot since I last went to class (I missed a few due to work pressure), I've relocated the reading texts and my stockpile of downloaded podcasts from
Chinesepod. Today I had Jenny and Liv in one of the advanced lessons, in my ear whilst doing the first lawn-mowing of the year. No idea what they were on about, but hey, it fired the Mandarin-related synapses.
Everybody seems to be using different flashcard systems, now why is that? Genuinely different needs or just a stupid net-bubble Cambrian explosion? I've been using
Flashcard Exchange where you can see me as user "
matt whyndham". I like this one because of: web service, social-ness, use of tags.
