This is a great start :) As mentioned in the post, even people experienced with systems have trouble with it. And thank you for the comment, I've always loved your website (every once in a while, I go and check your "appreciated" page, it's wonderful)
Thanks so much, I'm delighted to see you on here as well. Your website is fascinating and I love the section of the books!
as someone very much interested in learning French primarily for reading I enjoyed this writing of yours
Thank you! It was on my mind for years, it is definitely just as interesting to think about language learning as it is to, well, actually learn a language. :p
