What's this?

A little reflection daily about my language acquisition

133

After 7 weeks of teaching, walking to work, I’m into the habit of listening on foot. My mp3 player is loaded up with bits and pieces. I cycle through them.

So now the question arises: Do I listen to the same chapter repeatedly, or do I move on to new chapters?

It seems to me that, as a general principle, repetition is better. It’s not just new words that you want to encounter; you want to get familiar with them, and with the patterns that they form in context.


And so I’m going to know HP1 Chapter 1 inside out!
