Re: I am learning French

I know some French but not a lot. My parents used to speak in French when they didn't want me to hear something

I'm in the process of re-learning French, and secretly re-learning German.
All I can remember in German is:

Yavul
NEIN

Danke shein

Is that Cantonese?  The Mandarin word for snowing is "xue xia" - 下雪.

You got the order wrong - it's xia xue, and that means falling snow. The word for snow is just xue. (Don't get me wrong though, I read Chinese at around a 2nd grade level.)

I think GLaDOS2 was talking about this one thing I heard about, where Kai Lan pronounced the word for snow like that. Interestingly, it also sounds oddly similar to the Chinese word for poop (屎).

French is a fun and easy language to learn, especially if you go to France.

I wouldn't say it's "easy" - the pronoun usage always boggles me, and I *think* they have a few more tenses than we do.

For example, "I was placing them there when I talked to them" becomes "Je les y mettais quand je leur ai parlé" - which, when you translate it word-for-word, means "I them there was placing when I to them have talked."

But if you learn it through immersion (rather than learning each grammar rule) things become a lot simpler.  smile

Also, your first sentence should be something like: "Salut! Comment ça va? Je suis joyeux!" I'm not entirely sure what you mean by "vous joyeux trop;" literally, that means "you" (plural or respectful - in which case you wouldn't have adressed them as 'tu' in the first place) "happy too much?"

That's because you got that from google translate or whatever that translates stuff on the internet.You have to buy a dictionary to know what it means properly the translators online are messed up and use different words.

Like the word beard. That's feminine. ._.

I dislike it not even because of the randomness, but the idea of separating even words into boy and girl.

For the purposes of clarification, Swell here knows how to type forty words, not pronounce them correctly. He claims to have learned these words from Google Translate.
