The funniest and least understandable thing in the world is a french person speaking bad english. And some of them think their english is great.... Thank God I speak french. I would have to What? Pardon? them in every word, if I didn't.
They LEARN it's Hotel as in RRRotel... They keep saying Otel. It only gets worse.
Anyway, I have lots of french friends and I love them, they helped me more than my fellow brazilians when I got in trouble in France.

No, I understood what you said! I'm just not in French mode right now! lol
I can't believe I'm stuck in the house and it's Saturday night.
It's been a dull day. I went to the gym, I took a nap, and then I went on the computer. YAWN

I soooo want to learn French and Italian, especially for when DH and I make it over to Europe. I really need to re-learn Spanish for work, though. We get a fair amount of Spanish-speaking clients and our office manager is the only one who is fluent. Five years of Spanish in jr. high and high school and I can't speak the language. What a waste.

Regular school isn't the best way to learn a language, IMHO. Something especialized is way better and your classmates are there to learn too, not to make fun of the others.
I don't even have to bother learning spanish, it's very similar to portuguese and the Latin America accent is fine to get (instead of the spanish one). The cuban accent is bit more messy to understand amongst the latinamerican ones.
I love italian. I can understand some, but my next target is german.

I'm the same way with French. I took French from like, grade 3 until grade 9... and I SUCK at it. I don't know what happened, but up until grade 9 I was fairly decent at it, then I think I just randomly forgot everything or something. Good thing nobody where I live speaks French.. I was ok at Spanish, but now I'm pretty rusty. I took German too, but only for one year.

I can respond to fairly simple questions and amazingly I understand some of what I hear, but often they're speaking so quickly, I only catch every few words. But I don't recall much in the way of vocabulary and most of my conjugation has gone to crap. If you don't use it, you lose it pretty quickly.

I want to learn German just so I can yell at people in it.
Also, when I do karaoke for "99 luftballons" I'll be unstoppable!!!
I can actually understand Ga (Ghanaian language) but I have trouble speaking it.
Italian is also up on my list of languages to learn.
I love the food, the men, the country... why not love the language as well?

Ladies, I am back and I had a great time! Lisa Lampanelli was so hilarious!!!!
We had asian food for dinner which was deeeelicious!
Elegant, I wish you were there too. She made fun of everyone so hard. I wish i were in that front row because I wanted to get made fun of too.
Nora, glad to see you back! Good luck with the masters, I hope you get into your top choice school! Psychology is definitely one of my passions :-D
Susanne, happy to see you pop your head in.
Katie, glad you had an awesome time. Seems like you got some awesome gifts too!
Ladies, here are some pics from tonight of me. Fotd will probably be posted tomorrow.
I told my bf I was wearing all b brand names today (bebe, bcbg, betsey johnson). His response: "and boobies?" Yep, hes obsessed!
Ladies, do I look a bit thinner? I hope so cause thats a goal of mine.

German's an awesome language, it's pretty easy to learn too. I've been trying to teach myself Swedish, but it's kinda hard to do it by myself
I need to find somebody who is fluent who can help with pronunciation...

German isn't a pretty language, but I felt so lost there. Now, my german is in a basic communication level, really basic.
The italian people speak like brazilians. You never know if they are cheering or arguing!
And, like us, they move their hands a lot.
Kensie, you are so cool. How exotic and unique is to understand Ga?? I didn't even know Ga existed. I'll try to find something Ga spoken later.

You look gorgeous, my darling. Look how tiny that waist of yours is! I love the outside of that house you're at, too. Very pretty.
What did you wear for your makeups? I love the eyes and lips!
