Week #9

[Laura Major]

This week we learned personal pronouns. I had been familiar with a few of these just from learning common greetings so it wasn't too hard to learn. With the pronouns we included the verb "to have" which helped me learn how to conjugate in the present tense. I have taken other languages before and the set up was similar in that the conjugated verb is taken from the root of the main verb and then the ending for the specific pronoun is just added onto the end. We also learned the days of the week which are really easy. The week starts with Saturday as "shanba" and then numbers are added in front of shanba. So Sunday is just "yak shanba" in which yak means one. Next week we will learn human body parts.
