Thanks For The tips! I’m a bit of a grammar Nazi, so it’s going to be difficult to not focus on the grammar, but I can see your point. Duolingo has been working pretty well so far, though mostly in teaching me how to read the language, not so much speak it. It might just be because of the way I learn, who knows. It does go pretty far into sentences and conversation, from what I can tell. I’ll definitely look up that Facebook page! Sounds like a great way to at least improve my translation/reading skills.
