Spanish is completely new for me. I've never studied it in any shape or form. It looks as if I could get to grips with it quite soon as its alphabet is familiar. Nevertheless, to pick up Spanish I'm going to call in the cavalry!
It's time, methinks, to put Harry Potter back in the saddle. By now, I know the first book of the series so well that I don't need to refer back to the English to remember the story. That means I ought to be able to use the Spanish version as my starting point. I can dive - or charge - right in. Even though my level of understanding is at the 15% mark.
I'll leaf through the book, skipping over most of it, in search of sentences that I recognize. Just that. No trying to memorize, analyse or copy them down. I'll gallop through a book that I already know well and enjoy. Other than that, it's just rinse and repeat.
