I'm trying to improve my french comprehension, so that eventually I can read the classic's in their original language. Right now, I'm at about a 1st - 3rd grade reading level.
I can't decide what is better; to look up every unfamiliar word, or to keep going as long as I get the gist of what I'm reading, and only look up words if I have no clue what the sentence is saying.
Any suggestions from anyone else who has tried to become literate in a second language?
