AMD 2

For my second AMD I read the two Mark Twain articles. I found both to be very humorous in Mark Twain's classic style, especially his suggested revisions to the German language in his speech. "The Awful German Language" addressed many of the most confusing aspects of learning German in my opinion, unfortunately the article doesn't provide many strategies for overcoming this confusion. Overall, I was glad to hear that someone as intelligent as Mark Twain had issues learning German because it gives my struggles more validity however, if Mark Twain thought it was hard to learn then that doesn't fill me with very much confidence in my chances. Finally, I do believe I am going to try and avoid German newspapers.
