"a, an, the" are enough for me. I thank the heavens my L1 isn't German.
Academics can write all they want , but it's all moot, or is that mute , if student's don't put in the time. Yep, some guy writes a paper. Somebody writes a new book. The methodology is the hottest stuff most effective stuff. It has been peer reviewed and applauded at every forum. My supervisor gives me a new book. What am I to do with this I ponder. Students are lost. I toss book.
Then we...
Drill, drill, drill. Practice, practice, practice. Listen, listen, listen. Speak, speak, speak. Read, read, read. Write, write, write. Students hate me. They make progress.
Now, I'm off to put in my time. "Ich bin ein Berliner." "Sie is eine Berlinerin." - I think. Tou teng.  |
