Surprising how many words are shared by the two languages! (medicine is not one of them, although it's close) I'm glad it's coming along. I would think there'd be a sort of tipping point, where all the bits and pieces you have learned start to fall into place. And then it gets easier to insert new information into what you already know.<br /><br />Interesting photo - the window boxes have what looks like miniature shrubs in them!

Is it a brothel presided over by a vigorous "madame" called Elizabeth? Or maybe it is an outlet for personal care products sanctioned by Queen Elizabeth II.Yorkshire Puddinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06019673884543913089noreply@blogger.com
