[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Memorizing classic words doesn’t mean they understand them.

I can’t believe OP thinks memorizing is something worth praising and recommending.[/quote] Memorization is part of learning. It is a simple as that. How did you learn your times tables?[/quote] So now they have to memorize Canterbury Tales?[/quote] What are you talking about?
