.Amy. Posted April 7, 2008 Report Share Posted April 7, 2008 I have orals next year, at the moment we're just learning the questions. How many questions per language did you have to learn, Cal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barbara Posted April 7, 2008 Report Share Posted April 7, 2008 I hate oral exams. I'm always nervous. But I've always undertood what the teacher asked me, no matter the language. So that's a good thing. Yeah, understanding the questions was never a problem for me... it was answering them. Answering the questions, that's THE tricky part.

Cal Posted April 7, 2008 Report Share Posted April 7, 2008 I have orals next year, at the moment we're just learning the questions. How many questions per language did you have to learn, Cal? In French, we learn quite a lot. I'd say up to 40 questions. But then with that amount learned, you can answer almost any other question. And in Irish, I'd say we learn about 20-ish. But I'm in a lower level for Irish, so it's much easier than a higher level. Answering the questions, that's THE tricky part. It certainly is!

Siog Alainn Posted April 8, 2008 Report Share Posted April 8, 2008 I had my french one today.... :D It went really well, or at least I think it did! I was majorly happy coming out of the room. Only question I hadn't prepared well was the advantages of living at home next year (rather than moving out for college)....I said something vaguely correct but in the wrong tense Yeah I went to three classes today, French and the accounting after the exam. Was way too nervous to worry bout the other stuff! Now on to Irish........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aquamarine Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 Ugh...why I took German I have know idea. It started out as the easiest language I ever learned, but then it suddenly got hard. I can't even explain why I find it complex. Perhaps it's because of it's hectic grammar. When the teacher tries to explain it I say "Was in die world?" This weekend, I'm making it my #1 priority to study German! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
