Хочу попробовать использовать дайри как средство запоминания новых (и не очень новых слов). Короче, побалуюсь, посмотрим насколько меня хватить. За основу беру Advanced Everyday English Стивена Коллинза. Книжка представляет собой уроки с неким количеством интересных и актуальных слов и выражений to remember с английскими дефинициями и контекстными примерами. Моя тактика (единственное отличие от книги) будет в сочинении собственных примеров и собственных дефиниций. Примеры будут пополняться с апдейтом постов через определенное время (а может не будет) ака возвращение-повторение-запоминание.
Опыт составления собственных примеров был на 2-ом курсе и зарекомендовал себя хорошо при освоении лексики. Ключевой момент - время от времени возвращаться к ним. С учетом того как долго, в среднем, я зависаю на дайри - попытка не пытка.
В двух словах - если попрет - тут будет некоторое количество английского, в чисто учебных целях.
