Günde 3 tane İngilizce kelime anlama/öğrenme yöntemimizin 7. Gününde daha önce çalıştığımız 18 Kelimenin içinde geçtiği bir hikaye/deneme/şiir/paragraf yazacağımızı söylemiştik.
Ben yoğun iş tempomdan dolayı biraz geciktim ama gün bitmeden öğrendiğim bütün kelimelerin içinde geçtiği bir kaç paragraf yazdım. Anlam bütünlüğü açısından biraz zayıf gördüm, dil bilgisi, kelime hatalarım olabilir. Eksik ve yanlışlarımı belirtebilirsiniz, yada tavsiyeleriniz varsa dinlemek isterim.
Önemli olan öğrendiğimiz kelimeleri, kullanmak ve bunu kalıcı olacak şekilde sağlamaktır.
Not: Daha önce öğrendiğim kelimeleri tırnak içine aldım.
