0 Month 43, Day 4 – Restarting the Dictionary, Dry Accounting

GoldFibre to 일기 Daily Log  

Monthly Goal: Mine the ‘ㄷ’ section of the dictionary and continue to read daily.

Today’s Study: Vocabulary mining from the dictionary and reading from ‘K-IFRS 회계원리’ (K-IFRS Accounting Principles).

I did 10 pages from the dictionary today and it was pretty easy. I’m thinking on the days when I get enough time I will do 20 pages out of the dictionary. Since this section is so long, if I really want to finish it within the month I will have to put in a bit of overtime!

The new vocabulary from my K-IFRS book has really slown down. I read about 10 pages each day and I have come across less than one word per page for several days now. From reading this book I’ve come to learn that accounting textbooks are just as dry in Korean than they are in English. There are a few interesting sections though where they give some real world examples or talk about the history of a particular topic. I’m not really bored with the book yet, so I’m going to stick with it for now.
