Any demand for resources?

[jejak]

I've noticed that the threads for some languages, such as Chinese and Japanese, have a tonne of practice essays, oral questions, and tips for writing in various text types posted up. By contrast, the Indo thread is quite bare. Quick question - is there any demand out there for Indo oral questions, text type stuff etc? If I get a couple of replies, I'd be happy to post some of my resources up for next year's Indo students.

Just putting it out there!

yeah, I did Indo, but at my school its Cr@P. and not much people do it compared to French, German, Chinq, 10 in my class during 2009. Sigh

BTW apa kabar? angka VCE anda bagus/baik? (lol i still don't know the dif)

[08670]

yeah, that'd be great!

that'd be awesomee

[StringFever]

Yes please.

[jejak]

Yes please.

Not sure how much use they'll be to you, Stringfever, given you've done Indo already.

OK I'm going to post up a set of sample oral questions, and a description of the main text formats (letter, article etc.) shortly. After that, I'm thinking of posting sample essays, or "interesting language features" that you can throw into an essay.

jejak just one question. i'm not sure how to end a letter to a respected figure e.g. a principal. would it be something similar to 'Yours Sincerely?'

[jejak]

Hi Swoop, I imagine this is a bit late to be useful to you, sorry! But generally, if you've used the salutation "Dgn hormat", as is appropriate in a formal letter to a respected figure, it's sufficient to say "Hormat saya". So for instance:

Dengan hormat,

Berdasarkan keterangan yang saya peroleh ... dll...

Hormat saya,

Swoop

I'm gathering the Indo exam is over for this year? Hope everyone did well.

ahh thanks for that. a bit late but no worries it can come in handy for uni
