early, premature, precocious

Because schon is the German word for already. Now you might be like “Wait, already and completely don’t mean the same.” and you’re of course right….

1. Das Meeting is schon/erst um 11.
2. The meeting is as early as 11.
3. The meeting is not before/as late as 11. ▶

thank you very much

So I learned that if you wanted to say something like “I’m playing at 6” and you want to express the fact that 6 is early, you would say “Ich spiele schon um 6.” If you wanted to say “I work at 11” and want to express that 11 is late, you say “ich arbeite erst um 11”.

erst basically expresses that there’s lots of potential for “more”, while schon expresses that a lot of potential “has been used”.

erstens

1. firstly [adverb] in the first place.
2. for a start (used in argument etc) in the first place, or as the first point in an argument.
3. in the first/second etc place expressions used to show steps in an argument, explanation etc.
4. to start with as the first point (in an argument etc)

ERST is a valid scrabble word.

Source: ‘Daily Use’. Define ‘erst’: Adverb: at a previous time; “at one time he loved her”; “her erstwhile writing”; “she was a dancer once”

GIST — Great Ideas for Starting Things.

• GIST is a reading strategy that involves summarizing while you read. • The GIST strategy helps you comprehend dense text.

The goal of a GIST statement is to write a summary in a given amount of words (i.e 20 words, 15 words, 10 words). Instructors can also have the students write key facts about the assigned reading or perhaps even using a video. The students then can write their GIST statement from the key details they wrote, as well.

Main Idea. The gist is your initial thinking about what the text is mostly about. The main idea is the key point the author wants you to take away from reading the text, and is found by careful analysis of the text for details.

The definition of gist is the main point. An example of gist is when you sum up in one sentence what someone has just said to you. An example of gist is the legal grounds for a lawsuit. The grounds for action in a lawsuit.

Generating Interactions between Schemata and Texts (GIST) is a summarization procedure that helps students digest complex texts by requiring contextual word learning. GIST explicitly combines the most important words with reading and writing to comprehend complex texts.

Gist-purpose questions ask you to identify what the main purpose of the conversation or lecture is. You can recognize gist-content and gist-purpose questions because they use phrases like “mainly about”, “mainly discussing”, “why does the student” or “what is the main purpose.”

Gist reading plays a crucial role in giving learners an opportunity to prepare themselves for deeper understanding when they’ll be away from a safe classroom environment. Ultimately, an ability to read quickly helps learners focus on what’s most useful, relevant and important in a text.
