Wow, that could be nice. Textbooks are so straighforward and lack so much.
Not sure if it would be useful now but to clarify on a gesture. The A ok gesture in France means you are worthless (worth 0 litterally). But it's often done with the all fingers in the "o" shape. I'm from Canada but the French part of it so we still have many gestures from back when Canada was first colonised by France... like kisses ans such (kissing on the hand is seen as a romantic move rarely seen nowadays).

Hi, I really like the video and would like to use it in class (I am currently teaching in Japan). I wanted to know however if it would be possible to have an HD version as some of the writting is a bit hard to see/pixelized when I put it full screen.
Thanks a lot, you did a great job!

@Keshu - I don't think I have a capacity to make it to HD, however, I could possibly download a larger version, but I won't have access to that video for a few months as I'm traveling and sent my laptop home. I never had the pixelation issue in my classrooms, but I'm sorry you are. I'm glad you like the video and I'll see what I can do when I'm home.

@Keshu - also, if you want an entire lesson, I have corresponding powerpoints on slideshare.
