850: In defense of phrasebooks!

 Given that I use a variety of sources to mine for sentences and phrases, and that I am continually randomizing their order and substituting new ones for old, the mixture of text snippets that I swim in resembles nothing so much as an old-fashioned phrasebook.

And what's wrong with that?

Actually, it adds to the interest.

The vocabulary and the grammar remain the same. The same stuff is covered. And it keeps me alert and awake!
