    Speak English, people! Just because certain members can speak and understand other languages, doesn't mean you should exclude those SPers who don't. You don't see me posting for those 4 others who speak Russian, do you!? :nono:
    Is that Quebecois (however in the hell you spell that!) French? Because the Parisian I know for gentleman is "monsieur". :confused:
    And shouldn't you check your adverbs there, Daie? You were talking about females, yet nouveau is masculine, right? And wth is a copine? And yes, I'm practicing French incase Immigration has a test. It's too damned early for language corrections.

    And for those English speakers: Chip, chip, cherrio! :lol:

    Actually "Estoy Tarzana con espanol" more translates into

    "I speak Spanish like Tarzan" (But I made Tarzan into the feminine version by adding an "a" at the end of it."

    I know spanish pretty well but my grammer is really crappy.

    No Kuemper, Gentilhomme /ʒɑ̃ tiʎɔm / is a direct translation of gentlemen Gentle = Gentil man = Homme, it was quite used in Paris in the 19th century! Quebecois is right, but true jouale (i.e quebecois french) would've been M'sieur / M:siø /

    Daie Kuemper is right, it should be nouvelle petite amie / copine / nuvɛl pətit ɑmi , kɔpin / Copine alone is ok for girlfriend however you must ad the petite before amie, if not it's a regular friend.

    Actualy I translated what I said :p Je ne le ferai pas *is* I would not do it.

    Meh, my adverbs are abysmal, which accounts for the despair of my teacher in lessons.

    He teaches them, we do a test, I get an A

    We do a piece of work, I forget EVERYTHING.

    Hence my C grade last year, which I managed to pull up to a B in January.

    Strangely enough, my strongest exam is the speaking exam, but then again, in French, you can speak it much more easily then write it.

    When speaking, you can get the verb endings wrong inperceptibly, and all those annoying little accents can disappear...

    @ Ofelix

    Ton nouvelle petite copine, est-ce qu'elle jolie?

    О'кейо, препятствует двинуть дальше от французского к русскому после этого, потому что оно все модели как много чувство к мне как использование online переводчика сделать эту фразу.

    Take that, you under-cover french-agents!

    Wow, next year I might be in 5 honors classes... Honors Physics, Honors Pre-Calc/Trig, Honors English, Honors Spanish 4, and Honors Tech. I am not taking AP US History... Blah, that would kill me.

    How come on the best day for frisbee, we don't have practice?
