Answer Question
Accent marks slowing me down - your thoughts?
Bonjour! I'm just starting my Fluenz adventure. I'm on French 1, Session 5. I believe in developing good habits and not cutting too many corners when properly learning something new. For this reason, I have Challenge Mode turned-on. However, the accent marks are now slowing me down.
Initially, I thought that it would be good for me to type each word absolutely correctly, however, I now have to use 10 keyboard combinations for the French special characters that I've learned up to this point in Fluenz French 1 (â á à ê ê é ç î ô ù). I think forcing myself to use them may be actually hindering my progress by slowing down the learning process.
I'd like to know your thoughts are (pro and con) on how important this is as an early French student? Should I turn-off challenge mode?
