Language Partner Meeting #11
Goal for the semester: My goal for this semester is achieve the “elementary” level of Hindi, i.e. read, write, and speak.
Week: 11/19/12 – 11/25/12
Goal for the day: Grammar
This week’s “to do” was grammar. After having a hard time with reading, my language partner and I decided to focus on speaking.
Sanya gave me sentence structures. She explained how a basic sentence in Hindi is set up. After receiving this template, we started talking. I had better luck with talking than I did with reading. Utilizing the vocabulary that I had learned over the course of the semester, I was able to strike a real conversation. We talked about our likes and dislikes. I was able to talk about food using the fruits and vegetables vocabulary I had learned earlier. I was also able to use some of the business vocabulary. Overall, this meeting went a lot better than the prior one!
