Writing of Numbers
One again the writing of numbers. In the first part it concerned more reading and expressing from numbers, and the problems which I thereby
have. I have a similar problem with writing the numbers. If I write a number, then one writes in the ascending order. Thus if I write the number
of 172, then I write last the "1", then to "7" and then the "2". If I however read the number in the thought, then first there is the "1", then the "2"
and then at the end the "7". I first practiced the reading. That is now more or less to some extent what I can do. However if I must write a
number, I must "reposition" the numbers on demand. However since I remembered very intensively the reading, there comes when writing the
number in my thought it traverses "1", "2" and "7" into the game and it lasts some time to get it right again. But exercise makes the master.
Thus continue to practice!
By the way, also during reading in English some things are a bit confusing, it is somewhat less than in German, but nevertheless there is some
confusion. "zero", "one", "two", "three", "four", "five", "six", "seven", "eight", "nine" here is still all ok, but then it goes again somewhat crosswise:
"ten", "eleven" , "twelve", "third-teen", "four-teen", "fifteen", "sex-teen", "seventeen", "eighteen", "nineteen", here again the reverse sequence.
From that point on it goes again in order, "twenty", "twenty one", "twenty two" etc.. In contrast to German, however it is the "correct" order.
Thus while in German the number of "23" starts with "3" and ends with the "2" (twenty-three"), it is reverse in English. Thus the is first the "2"
and then there is the "3".
If you once one learned the numbering, then that is not problem at all, but until you can it there, it will last some time.

In the forest
I was some days ago with my father in the forest. We were afforesting. That is an activity, which I can make, since I must apply thereby no
large concentration, and/or it is an activity for which my concentration is sufficient. It was a lot of fun. There was fresh air and it was pleasantly
