hey..
If you wanna learn a few writting basics in french reply here!!
I'll be waiting!
Chantale!

This is a great idea!! How much french knowledge do you think would be required, or are you going to start at the very beginning basics? I haven't had french since grade school..... I'm not telling how far back that is now, suffice to say it's over 15 years!

Cette une bonne idée, Sarah et Chantale.

Commencez, Chantale.

First... let me ask you...
Just how much do you know
?

Well, to be honest I'm not sure anymore! I used to be quite good at french, but am severely out of practice and I'm not sure how good grade 8 french qualifies! My other problem is that I tend to mix my languages. For example, I wanted to say:

"Je sprechen sie Francais", but that is french and german mixed..... but I tend to do that when I cannot remember the right word in either language.

Je ne parlaiz vous Francais, je parle Anglais.

With practice, I'll probably remember more.

First, you'll need a french/english dictionnary!!

And to correct your sentence..
<>
Ok...
To begining.. maybe we should start with easy words... and then move further..
I never gave "frech lessons""///
So you'll have to give me a chance!!
What we could do is this...
I could teach you stuff then give you like a quiz or something but you'd have to be honest and not lookk back...
it's up to you~~
Tell me what ya think of my idea!!

Comme j'ai dit, cette une bonne idée, Chantale.

I think it's a good idea too! I'm willing to be your guinea pig - just give me a few days to get that dictionary - the only one I have here is german/english!

Thanks for volunteering to do this Chantale!

I took 6 years of french in school and what I remember would fit into the palm of my hand. I do remember how to conjegate a verb though LOL. Plus it was formal french, not the stuff people actually speak. I was totally into anything french as a kid and I blame it on Dumas. He just had to write that book about musketeers and I just had to read it.
