Review of Grammar Difficulties; Emphatic Particles; Various Phrases

The last week of class... Today was the last day of instruction. Tomorrow we'll take the final and perform our presentations.

Today, we were lucky to have 3 visitors- Ghanaian-American girls that have a variety of experience with Twi. At least one of them can understand it perfectly and I'm pretty sure she speaks it well. It's nice that these young women are interested in the class, though it's a shame they couldn't attend until the end.

We went over a few of the difficult grammar points to wrap up the class. It's the first time in a week or so that we've done this kind of work. We've been working hard on our dialogs and personally-relevant vocabulary. So, this is a bit of a review, but there is also some clarification of past topics.

S⊃ka oo!

GHANA WINS in the Round of 16!!! Though I'm sad that the USA is going home, I'm very proud of Ghana. They played really well and definitely deserve to advance. Next Saturday, they have to beat Uruguay. As long as they continue to play strong and do well with defense, I'm confident they can win.

(Unfortunately, I didn't get to watch the game cause I was watching a much-anticipated concert in Central Park. Tinariwen (and band from Mali) was playing there for free- how could I resist seeing such an amazing band?)
