So. French, by August...Piece of piss.

By the stars!

And moving on.


Holy FUCK! Dude!

Mary in garlic land, cool for you, but what about me?!

I speak two languages, English and, bad inglish.

So no French, to speak of, I've just got some discs, well if I'm gonna make a tit of myself lets do it "grande'.

You're gonna suffer for this. I may even say the banned line, you know what that is.

Git chops!

Dude, you should learn German instead for a joke and see who spots it.

Or Spanish....and then just claim they all sound the same to you anyway.

"Piece of Piss" is my new favorite phrase.

I was a French linguist in the Navy, you know. I might could help you.

Ah, so you listened in on our allies eh? Shifty eyed snail eaters.
I'm going to give it a few months listening to the ten discs before I'll be asking for help, but thanks all the same.
At the moment I'm ripping them to iTunes and already have discs 1 and 2 on the nano, the next thing to do is copy the discs do the PSP, that way I can listen to the lessons as I drift off to sleep of an evening.
Michel Thomas says that you should be relaxed and what better place for relaxing than in bed.

If you start dreaming in French (sacre bleu!) you'll know you've cracked it ... one of my weirdest experiences learning languages. And Alcohol also, takes off the inhibitions, so you stop worrying about your declensions and conjugations. Fnarr. :)

I got some weird looks off people the other day as I walked along mumbling to myself in broken French.

Take a shot of your favorite liquor, too.

And no, silly, I was not listening in on your allies. :p

Hey I'm on the Michel Thomas too! I'm on disc 2. I like the way he says 'Look, I don't want you to try and remember anything and you're not allowed to write it down'. Why didn't they do that at school?

Did D tell you about Michel or did you come accross him yourself? D doesn't have a clue about his Ipod so I've arranged for it to pick up all the French Lessons out of Itunes for when he goes on his seven month trip - mwa ha ha ha

Quelle sorte de reservasion avez vouz pour moi pour c'est soir?

K

Ed said...

Is this K from the UK or OLPP?

If it's K from the south then sod D, no help!

He's marrying you and can therefore look slightly odd in front of the French, hang on, that didn't come out quite right.
Look, don't help him, it'll be more fun.
After all he dropped the French thing on me sort of out of the blue.

Aww crap. You two will look Uber cool and the French will remember me as that fat fool who sounded like the policeman from Allo.

Win Win.

allo

Ed said...

Who is K?

"Reservation for me that way".

Don't think I can do it?

It's help I need not laughter.

it is not comfortable for me.

Allo,

Yep its K from the South (both posts). I tried to finish off Michel Thomas CD2 yesterday PM (D was Duty), so I sat on the futon and relaxed (just like he said)......and then I woke up on CD 4! Damn. I hadn't subliminaly learnt it all either. Double Damn. Back to CD 2 for me again today.

Okay, here goes - bear in mind I haven't a clue how to spell it all;

C'nest pas tres comfortable pour moi.

Which lesson are you up to?
