tbh when Jameela Jamil was calling these celebrities the fuck out and she said “How much money do you need? Really how much money do you need? How much money do any of these huge influencers who are worth millions or billions sometimes… How much more?” i felt that in my bones
- if u have an oral exam lead the conversation and offer up information, this way they can’t stump you as much with words you don’t understand cause ur the one saying all the words, only say what you know, not what u dont -this ones a bit dorky so more for actual language lovers than jus ppl trying to pass an exam but keep notebooks where u write down all turns of phrases, to the left in ur first language and to the right the one ur studying for, this is mostly also gonna give u the image of being really well read and spoken since u know a few of these turns of phrases that they don’t just give u in the vocab lists
-he gave me this little scheme of like things that are vital when forming a sentence -> writing a text: 4 things to pay attention to:
the gender of the word (un/une, le/la)
the amount (like is it singular or plural)
the conjugation of the verb with the subject (if its feminine plural the verb must be too) and the adjective with its subject)
the tense
thats it, thats like all u need 2 know to make a text work.. also personal tip from me if u dont know a word, you have plenty of knowledge to work around it. if its a text on a written exam, they’re not gonna hear ur umming, and u can jus change the sentence. - most people know and do this one but read news stories in ur target language, and then here the notebook w turns of phrases can be helpful - FIND A VOCAB LIST THAT IS RELEVANT TO YOUR INTERESTS AND HOBBIES if you are going to be doing an oral exam where they ask u to introduce urself, dont waste too much time on words that aren’t relevant to you personally. im not going to learn too many words about fixing cars, but im gonna learn all the art words. - relevant in every language but if u have to write a text based on something they give u, write from the bottom up, by which i mean form an opinion of whatever they’ve given you (which is ur conclusion) and then find ways to get to that conclusion
i think thats all i got for now if i remember more ill tell ya, also i might post some more pics of things hes given me and also my actual workbook cause its really good and useful
first day of school is finished, challenge is completed, ive got 2 interviews scheduled and im feeling really good about these upcoming months! gonna keep pushing to be productive and posting a bunch
