It would benefit me and expedite my studies if the direct English translation were available just beneath the full text. Though I usually understand the overall meaning of the text, I still have a few words on each exercise that are not obvious or already a part of my vocabulary. Certainly I can copy and paste into google translate, but this takes unnecessary time and switching between windows. Google translation is not perfect and sometimes offers an awkward rendering. In this example, I was not used to the use of the word pistes to indicate ‘tips.’ I was also not familiar with ‘quant’ or ‘AVC.’
On a completely separate issue, I could benefit from a brief explanation of why particular verb forms are used in certain situations—use of the imparfait here created a little confusion. A little ‘teacher’s notes’ section could be useful.
I get a lot out of work out of these dictees and appreciate having the opportunity to practice them. I think with a little bit of extra explanation from your side, they could benefit me even further. Thanks for your consideration.
