SDLC 110: Learning Journal #8

[Jinhoo Bong]

This week's video lesson was focused on expressing doubt or uncertainty. I followed along with the video lessons that I have been following, and just continued the same process. I was able to learn the certain ending phrases that are added to verbs to suggest uncertainty. It also introduced different phrases that are used to express suggestions, such as translated: "What should I do?"; "What do you think about- ?"; "It would be better to- ". Then I practiced using these phrases with my language partner and fixed the little mistakes that came along with using them for the first time. I also learned a couple more vocabulary words that indicate a state of being such as "to be neat; to be cool; to be chubby.." and so on. This ties into the lesson through the example the video provided, which was a conversation between two friends where one states he/she wants to be something(using one of the vocabulary words taught), and the other friend suggesting something.
