During this past week, I did the following activities:
- Created a script/dialogue for my first artifact based on a conversation between two people greeting each other, introducing themselves, and then saying farewell. I wrote the dialogue in Hindi script, and my Language Partner and I are recording it tomorrow -- I will then upload it to the Ning. [Approximately 8 sentences]
- Listened to 3 dialogues from "Jab We Met" (Hindi movie) and tried to recognize certain words -- this was very helpful based on the similarity of many words to Punjabi.
- I learned the singular --> plural transition of masculine/feminine nouns in Hindi and did grammar drills about this topic (singular/plurals of masculine and feminine nouns) from the book "Introduction to Hindi Grammar" (Usha Jain)
- I read and listened to the dialogues in Hindi in TYH (Teach Yourself Hindi) -- introduction to asking someone about their family and introducing someone else.
