Re:Re:Re:Re:Re:Hello! Lets discuss books)
I think that it's the best way to learn new words by reading books in original and it helps to feel the unique style of the author because it's lost in the translation

Re:Re:Re:Re:Re:Hello! Lets discuss books)
By "original" do you mean, not simplified? If you do, I have experienced that in learning Latin, but it's so rewarding to read original text. It is so difficult to deeply understand a book in another language though. There's so much that an author says beyond his words that are very difficult to translate.

Where can I buy educational books in Nyanja - for children?
Hi. I sponsor a child through Children International. She lives in Zambia and only speaks Nynaja. Her family is very poor and she does not have a lot of resources. She is 9 yrs old and even sleeps on a concrete floor. :(
I am hoping to find her books, written in Nyanja, that she can enjoy. I prefer books that will help her either learn English, or help her with math, science, anything...
Of course, fun children's books are also on the shopping list. :) I have exhausted all the US resources I can think of: google searches, Amazon, etc... These books are not an easy find. So, if you happen to know where I can buy some, I would be SO happy! Thank you!

Re:Harry Potter
Yeah! I read this book and I was disappointed at the end. Because it was written very horrible. The action was good but too hectic. And I thinks some of deaths weren't necessary e.g. the death of one of the Weasleys Twins.

Re:Does anyone know a good book????
Yeah!! I know a really good book which is about vampires. It is called 'Twilight' and the author is Stephenie Meyer. There are sequels but I haven't read it yet, so I can't say, if they are good or not.

'Biss zum Morgengrauen'/ 'Twillight' (Stephenie Meyer)???
Ich hab das Buch 'Biss zum Morgengrauen' gelesen. Und ich war so angetan von dem Buch, dass ich auf der Suche nach Leuten bin, die das Buch auch gelesen haben um mit ihnen darüber zu reden.
I read the book 'Twilight' which is written by Stephenie Meyer. And I'm taken with this book, so I search people who read the book to talk about this book.
