NVA November Day 2: Month, To Confirm, Difficult

Today is Day 2 of the NVA November challenge by @uni-venture. The task is simple: each day, write a sentence or short paragraph in your target language, using the noun, verb, and adjective of the day.

To give myself an extra challenge, I’m going to make my 30 sentences into a continuous story. So if you were wondering what happened after the main character found the prayer card in her mailbox, please read on: 

month -- der Monat

to confirm (something) -- (etwas) bestätigen

difficult -- schwierig

Der Anfang des Monats war immer die schwierigste Zeit, eine Besprechung mit dem gebildeten alten Pater Laurentz zu verabreden, aber sie kannte niemand anders, der ihre Vermutung über die Identiät des Heiligens bestätigen könnte.

Feedback is always welcome! Feel free to correct my German or to comment on the story as it unfolds!

(Edit: Thanks to @liapherlanguage for the correction!)

This simple challenge is for anyone who is trying to learn a language. Every day of November, try to write a sentence or small paragraph containing all of the words for that day, using the prompted Noun, Verb, and Adjective! You may conjugate all you want, you may use several more nouns/verbs/adjectives, as long as the prompted words are there and recognizable.

Post to tumblr or write for yourself! And don’t forget to tag with your language and #NVA November, so that others may help and correct you, and so we can see if it’s possible to make weirder sentences than Duolingo.

NVA November - Day 27

Words: corridor, to close, dark

Jeg så denne skrekkfilmen i går. I den første scenen, en butikkeier har nettopp stengt butikken for natten. Hun er klar til å dra hjem, men hun ser en mørk skygge i korridoren og går for å se hva det er... Jeg forteller deg ikke hva skjer etter det, for du må se filmen selv.

NVA November - day 19 (snow, touch, tough)

Íslensku 🇮🇸 Ég elska snjó, en mér líkar ekki við að snerta það. Snjór hefur sterka áferð. Á Íslandi, snjór bráðnar af veginum vegna upphitunar gangstéttanna.

English 🇨🇦 I love snow, but I don’t like touching it. Snow has a tough texture. In Iceland, snow melts off the road because of heated pavement.

Day 1 - NVA November

NVA November by @uni-venture

Včera jsem dostála neočekávaný e-mail. Časem mailuju s kamarádami i mým zaměstnavatelem, ale ještě nikdy jsem nedostála e-mail od policisty. Policista psal, aby přinést jemu vepřový řízek, brambory a knedlíky s omačkou pro jeho kamaráda. Myslela jsem, co udělat... Protože jsem studentka, nemám penize. Napsala jemu, že já taky mám hlad a nejsem jeho manželka. Potom policista odpověděl, že to byl omyl, že jeho manželka má podobnou e-mailovou adresu. To bylo velmi krásně!

I’d really appreciate if some of Czech langblrs pinpointed my mistakes!

NVA November - Day 6

dictionary - to steal - tall

Aujourd’hui, j’ai cherché quelque mots dans le dictionnaire pour un projet. En parlant de livres, j’ai vu des gens volaient des livres d’un magasin, je le ferais si j’étais plus grande, car les livres de langues sont sur l’étagère plus haute, je rigole, les gars, ne faites pas une telle chose.
