Session Summary
Friday, October 21, 2016
3:15pm to 4:35pm PDT
Topics covered:
Pavan did just great this afternoon! We finished our translation of Daudet's «La dernière classe», then moved on to the famous short story by Guy de Maupassant, «Deux amis». Pavan really tore through, rendering at times some rather complex English to equal the complex, native French he was reading. Pavan continues to stumble through his pronunciation, and he continues to have trouble with his habit of pronouncing the "s" at the end of words when the French don't do so. Other than that, though, he's doing just fine. Thanks so much, Pavan, for your good, hard work today.
