[Song] Exercises Ex 1 : Quiz Go to the Quiz. Ex 2 : Memory training Write out the Breton words, section by section. Have 2 columns, clearly separated, and write Breton and English. Then cover up one column (eg. English) with paper and write the corresponding words on the paper. Then try it the other way round, cover up the Breton, and write out the words using the English as cues. This will be a little bit more difficult. Repeat all this after an interval, the more you do it the easier you will remember the words.
