(no subject)

Oh, hey, that's a construction that goes with nouns that I should practice and can work with the nouns given on Memrise.

Мне нравится этот президент.
Мне нравится директор Фьюри.
Мне нравится кабинет Эрика. Он очень красивый. (?)
Мне не нравятся Эрик и Адалинд.
Мне не нравятся Семь Семьи.
Мне нравятся Ренард и его канарейка.

Ренарду нравится его Гримм. Inexplicably.
Ренарду тоже нравится Хэнк.
Ренарду не нравится его брат.
Ренарду не нравятся Семь Семьи.
Ренарду не нравится Веррат.

Джульетте нравится Ник.
Джульетте нравится её работа.
Джульетте нравится Хэнк.
Джульетте нравятся животные.
Джульетте нравятся Монро и Розали.
Джульетте не нравятся лжи Ника.


Well, that may or may not have gone pretty well. I guess in the absence of new verbs I'll be refreshing myself on other constructions? This weekend I should schedule a block of time to translate some more of that fairy tale and see if I do any better/any quicker without sacrificing accuracy. At least the odds are, if I fucked up on that exercise, it's either a typo or I fucked up in some intrinsic way that will require redoing the whole thing so I embed the right way to do it into my thinkmeats. On the other hand, that's a similar construction to Spanish, so.

Plus I got some bloggery out and a check-in post this morning! Which involved way more pulling out issues and laying them out for examination than I expected, and, ow. I mean, it's a good thing. But nonetheless ow. At least now I know that iceberg is there.

Stuff continues to happen. I might try and get one more blog entry out of me today but this afternoon is primarily for White Lightning and this evening is primarily for Person of Interest blogging and cooking and prepping some lunches so I don't forget them when rushing out the door this week, discussing the garden, picking up stuff. Random things. I think this afternoon's garden task will be, barring that the boy took a wild hair to get longer screws (shut up all of you), transplanting the basil shoots to fewer per pot, and then transplanting either the sage or the parsley into the last bigger pot we have. Possibly the parsley. Though I'm kind of curious just how tall the sage will go. And, hmm. Dinner tonight is easy stuff, so I should have a fair bit of writing time and I'll have to think about what to do for that. Extra scenes in Twisted Thread probably, but maybe also a short for submission to the Shimmerzine place. Thoughts! Decisions! Have to see what else is going on.

I do so love having my brain and emotions back remotely under control again. Love it good.

I swear I can type. And remember which language I'm speaking. Really.

WOOT! One grammar point down, fifty frajillion to go. ;)

SEE THIS ONE WAS A TRICKY POINT. Because the word order is sucky. Because the subject (the nominative case) is after the verb, not before it.

But you done it!
