Quelqu'un parle francais?

Mon Feb 12, 2007 2:30 am

Je parle un petite francais mais mon grammaire est mauvais. Si quelqu'un d'autre parle francais peut-être nous pouvons aider l'un l'autre.


(I speak a little french but my grammar is bad. If someone else speaks french maybe we can help eachother.)

J'aide quelqu'un avec ses devoirs français maintenant :P

J'aime le français <3. Mais ma grammaire est mauvaise aussi.

Je parle le français aussi. Ma grammaire est comme çi, comme ça, mais ce semestre est la première fois que j'ai parlé le français depuis mai.

J'adore le français, et j'ai pris 6 ans du français dans le collège et le lycée.

For History, Im expected to be able to read it, which I can, slowly, but my speech is terrible.

You can always tell when people have grown up with it. Benladesh, you've got really good structure, better than most around here, atleast! So many Quebecois kids do, haha. Which is funny, since most people who've grown up speaking English can barely create a proper sentence.

A little word of advice: please don't make a thread solely for a non-english language and expect me or the other moderators to translate to see if it's acceptable language (we are an English language forum after all.) For all I know you're talking about how much Yukio smells like poo.

Most of the French I know comes from a handy list of insults I found. It should come in handy one day. Until then, my preferred Romance language is Spanish.

They're just warning the Francophones. =P

However, there's the problem of differences between dialects. Someone in Quebec who speaks French will be a little different (even in their writing) than someone from France or someone from a French-speaking country in Africa.

And Rune, I didn't know you spoke French. :P

Apparently, Creole French spoken in the Caribbean don't conjugate verbs.

I can understand almost anything I read, but hearing stuff is a different matter since I don't have the time to slow down and reread what I need to to figure it out. Writing I can kinda do, although I'm sure any native speaker would wince at my grammar/sentence structure/etc. Speaking is also kinda iffy, but if I go slowly I can kinda manage... sometimes :P

And a funny story related to the topic for you all: Apparently when my dad was in college, two of his dormmates spoke french; one had learned in France, and one had learned in Québec. They'd get into arguments, in french, about how the other person's french sounded stupid :P

Je parle seulement un peu de francais, mais je le lit tres bien.

I did French for 4 years. Can't remember any of it. I found all French teachers to be crazy and irritating. The first one ran off an cried and never came back to the school thanks to the actions of the people in my class. The second one was a radio enthusiast that tried to pick up foreign stations on his radio. The third was a Scotsman who had been teaching French in South Africa. And was crazy.
