Opinions welcome. What I meant to add was, a book chrestomathy may render it superfluous to add reading passages to the lessons. Although thinking better on it, I now disagree. We're talking one or two paras at the very end of each lesson. In fact, we're quite likely talking 4 or 5 in the lessons, rather than 1 per lesson... -- **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** * Dr Nick Nicholas, Linguistics/French & Italian nickn@unimelb.edu.au * University of Melbourne, Australia http://www.opoudjis.net * "Eschewing obfuscatory verbosity of locutional rendering, the * circumscriptional appelations are excised." --- W.
