Nederlands en Frans

 I could finally registered in a French course near my place (still 25 min walk). Unlike my Dutch course, the median age seems a bit higher - maybe around 35-40 I guess.

Judging from my first lesson... it's not very interactive nor fun. I think the reason would be that there are too many people and people don't seem to listen to the teacher. On top of that, some people even speak French already.............. and some don't write Alphabet. Hah

I should look for another French course which starts around November. Until then, I really need to focus on Dutch.. things are getting more difficult and there are a lot to absorb... this weekend I think I will have to study..... no more fun for me. 

Practice Dutch?

I've downloaded the application called 'NoisyTyper' which makes sounds of a typing machine whenever I write. It is interesting and I am more tempted to write :-)

From Monday, I've attended 3 classes and it turned out to be very fun. Maybe because it's just easy beginning. I like the teacher and classmates which is a very important fact in making lessons more fun.

Anyways, I decided to write something today just to try two things: 1) NoisyTyper; and 2) my Dutch writing skills.

Hallo

Ik heet Gayoung en ik woon in Schaarbeek. Ik ben niet getrouwd en ik heb geen kinderen. Ik woon nog maar 3 weken in Belgi˜µ˚∆˙©ƒ∂ßå∆≥…æ‘“¨¨ë  - België. (I am not used to use 'ë' I have to admit). Ik spreek Engels, Koreeans en enn beetje Nederlands (en enn beetje Spans). Ik studeer Nederlands en Elsene. Ik ben zesentwintig jaar. Ik verjaar op 26 maart. Mij favorite seizoen is zomer.


It's a bit stupid but I think it is important to practice this way. REPEAT and try to create more sentences..... maybe with this NoisyTyper app I will be more tempted to write, even everyday :-)

Useful links for learning Dutch

I was just web-surfing and found some links which are good for learning Dutch! Yay
(I am not sure whether I will be using these often though :p)
