Thanks Kat.
Moderation is a good thing, We I think it is.

I have French word processor with spell checking and pronunciation software.
And then I put it through a French speech synthesizer, to see if it sound right to me,” the blind leading the deaf, then me “.

Thanks again.

Travailler is one of those false friend type words (faux-amis?)

Ou est cet accent truc?

Bonjour Interne

Thank for the encouraging words.
You and Kat are the only on-liners, which have replied to any of my posting. And Kat seems to be very busy with his other online duties., he seems to be doing a good job; he made me feel welcome when I arrived, he’ll get my vote for official ACE..

You hade a French teacher, I hade the 4 R’s Reading “Riting Rithmetic” Religion smiley - smiley. I think that has something to do with my choice of work environment.

Sometimes think I go take a night school class. Once term start it’s a made house until half term. And we work the holidays to build up time off in loo, and then take it all around now. Nice 6-8 week holiday in the summer. Visited Egypt this year.

Waffling again (sorry), “ I’ll shot up now “Don’t forget my French is second hand and will be peppered with English.


Vous avez un favorate sujet à la causerie environ
Have you a favorate subject to chat about.

Par pour maintenant.ayez un beau jour..(That doesn’t sound right)

Lou, (Listy) Not around too much, don't be offended if I don't reply.. I'LL TRY!

Bonjour á (wrong way round... how do you do it the other way?) ! C'est moi, j'ai retourné!
N'avez pas peur de parler francais ici, car c'est une lecon pour tous!
Moi, je suis un ACE - c'est tres interessant si on recu les responses (tres rares!), mais il y a beaucoup beaucoup d'ACEs et du temps en temps, on trouve qu'il n'y a pas le travaille a faire!
smiley - puffdeep breath...
Hi everyone! It's me, I have returned....
Don't be afraid of speaking french here, its like a lesson for everyone!
I'm an ACE - it's interesting if you get replies (which is very rare), but there are lots and lots of ACEs and sometimes there is no work to do!

Être officieux me signifie peut bienvenue même si ils ont été ACED déjà! J'ai desolé, je ne sais pas (how to do it the other way round).

Je trouvé Francais difficile smiley - wah

Being unofficial means I can still welcome even if they have already been ACED!
I'm sorry I don't know how to do it the other way round. I'm cheating by finding the words I want, shoving them in word and then pasting.

I find french difficult! smiley - wah

Quand on a eu beaucoup de practise, c'est un peu plus simple... mais toujours difficile! Mais etre brave, c'est amusant et, pour moi, plus simple a apprendre que l'allemand.
Vous avez apprendre le francais depuis combien de temps?
Aussi, est-ce que je peux vous tutoyer?

When you've had a lot of practice, its a bit easier... but still difficult! But be brave, its fun and, for me, easier to learn than German.
How long have you been learning French for?
Also, do you mind me calling you "tu"?

The Language Thing

J'ai (familiar enough to call whatever!)
J'ai appris le français pendant quatre années, mais j'ai cessé de l'étudier il y a trois ans.
Ce n'est pas plus facile que l'Allemand! l'Allemand est plus simple, mais le gramatique est tré compliqué

I'm familiar enough to call whatever! Vous is faaarrr too polite!
I learnt French for four years but I stopped three years ago.
It's not easier than German! German is simpler but the grammer is very complicated.

Lou, (Listy) Not around too much, don't be offended if I don't reply.. I'LL TRY!

J'ai appris le verbe "tutoyer" il y a deux semaines... et donc je veux l'utilser!

Je trouve le grammaire allemandoise trop difficile.

Et maintenant, je cherche un tortoise (?) pour questionner sur son chapeau... smiley - winkeye

I learnt that verb two weeks ago and I wanted to use it smiley - biggrin

I find German grammar tooooo difficult!

And now I'm looking for a tortoise to ask about it's headgear... smiley - winkeye
