READING for my ESL students and my daily encounters with FUN and sharing these: pleasure, glee, laughter, comedy, teasing, word-play, celebration, joking, enjoyment, good cheer, delight and amusement! Three cheers for my precious and prized THESAURUS ... ONE OF MY FAVOURITE BOOKS !!!
Excellence is not a skill. It's an attitude.

Hi! Suzanne
Reading is very pleasant but it is less pleasant when we don't understand. I began reading in English when you suggested to me to read books for children. I read every day before my computer and I didn't need to look for in the dictionary because Google can make it for me. I don't lose interest for the story.
Have a nice weekend
Hi!
Thanks for sharing your English reading experience.
What you did was to find a way to make reading an easier and more efficient way of keeping focussed on the story.
Actually there are books that have that immediate translation on the facing page plus footnotes with explanations. But and there is a but, you cannot necessarely find the stories that interest you and secondly ... you have to buy them!
Have a nice weekend,
Suzanne
