Le langue de francais est tres magnifique, mais je ne sais pas si quelqu'un qui parle francais tous les jours pouvait me comprendre si je dirai quelque chose, ou si on pensait que je suis bete.
C'est un problem.

French or English, Yo
I think blogger must have decided that I speak Spanish.
The last six blogs it has showed me have all been in Spanish.
The most recent one was about fashion, all in Spanish, with all Asian models.
Hmm...

Peux-je parler francais? S'il-vous plait?
I wish that I was actually fluent in a language. So bad.
And unfortunately, I feel like the classes that I'm in are really a waste or of time, and they will never let me achieve my goal. I always translate stuff in my head, to try and see how much I actually know, and after two and a half years of French, I still can't really carry on a conversation.
It makes me sad.
I understand some basic rules, but then others I've completely forgotten. The system of teaching is rather ineffective. We will learn something, like direct/indirect object pronouns and their placement, but then not do anything with it for a year. So when we need to go back and use them or the reflexive or another like concept, we no longer remember how to use it.
So, in most cases, I just end up altering what I really wanted to say to fit the simpler form of the things that I actually can say.
I wish that I wasn't in school, and that travel wasn't so expensive, so that I could just go live in France for a month and learn my French. Or the same with Italy.
I've been trying to teach myself Italian, and although I haven't been able to put as much time toward it as I would like to in the past few weeks, I feel like I'm learning much more efficiently than I do in my French classes. Which is pathetic.
I know that my teachers can speak French. I know that they know the rules and all of the different ways of saying things.
Now can they pass that on to me? Please? Because being incapable of carrying on a decent conversation with more than the basic language is driving me crazy.
J'aime les langues. Maintenant, apprends-moi à leur parler.
Anybody know somebody who speaks another language? French? Italian? Send them my way.
I'm begging you.
