I go in bursts... well, since I spend most of my time working toward my PhD and other research, I find it hard to post consistently - not enough hours in the day or something like that...

It's ashame, because you like I are married to a Korean woman! Anyway, I'll be sure to check out your blog more often. I've recently started my own blog "Thoughts on Language Learning" www.learnclick.com/blog In this blog I write about my quest on seeking for ways to improve my language learning, especially with the use of modern technology. You might be interested to pay my blog a visit. And maybe we can do a link exchange. Thank you. Philip Hi Andee,

Usually it's best to make the list yourself because then the sentences have meaning to you and you may find them more useful and memorable. Although, I'm sure there are a number of places to download lists of pre-made sentences. The Anki download centre has some already established for instance :) People have different ways of getting their 10000 sentences… phrase books, grammar books, websites, podcasts, movie subtitles… your imagination is the only limitation.
