My English must be really bad, I should finally leave

[gtopa1]

After all it's not my place, I'm not American and a lot of members do not like the French.
I make efforts to make myself understood too, but in the end I do not feel very well accepting that's how it is I would have tried

But i love you for sure American People

Huh? I'm not a yank either but be stuffed if I'll let some pipsqueak ignorant fools concern me in any way. You have here those who consider you are just fine. I'll keep an eye out for you; I don't often leave the Badlands.

Oh, yes, Dalia, you must stay.

You are always very civil to everyone.

If anyone is being rude, simply ignore him/her. (There's an ignore option, too.)

Please do continue to blow off steam here.


Best wishes

Thank you, I agree but I also wanted to leave because I felt lost because I do not always understand and sometimes I asked and it's mocking me or the person do not answer at all so i don't how to know in the end.i Don't wont to guess
But my thread helped me understand everyhting and everyone

It's not you darling. It's the mocking people who can't put a normal sentence together in English.

The harder the challenge -- the faster you will learn to conquer it. And USMB is a BIG challenge to understand what is going on and what is being said. Most of the time -- the POSTERS don't know what they are saying.



DO NOT LEAVE US. You hear? I'll volunteer to help you with satire and personal flames. I'm around a lot. Just send me a note. I won't tell a single person..

It's complicated all that, flacaltenn,there are members who mock and there are members who mock but is not mockingly. Purée.

That's why I ask when I'm not sure if do not get a answer I can not know
The worst for me is when a member comes to say something that does not relate to what happens it can be a prank but not Always.​

If i go downstairs as i was i wanted to do pranks but i was not sure of a member's reaction i asked a member in pm what was happening i mean if the member's answer who was laughing was mean or not, the member in pm replied that he did not really believe.
.
You see Flatacen: even pure American blood does not know what the hell is going on.

It's best to THINK that it's all a prank. Because if it was something important -- you would probably understand it just fine. So it's OK to skip some stuff that you're not sure of. Or -- if you are still very interested -- do not contact the prankster !!! Ask someone you TRUST.. You have many friends here who will do a better of explaining it to you. I took 5 years of French. Still can watch maybe French cartoons or figure out the topic of a movie.

But I learned French from a teacher with a DEEP southern American accent. And it all sounded ridiculous. Even to French Canadians that used to come to Daytona Beach in the winter time. Only time I ever tried to used it.

Can you imagine how silly French sounds spoken with a deep Southern accent? I don't have one. But I spent 5 years learning from someone who did..

 

[flacaltenn]

It would be like all those French people who speak English with a distinct British accent. It's amazing to hear. Because they LEARNED the French language from someone British.

I see no reason for you to leave, but if you feel you must go, then do it. Don't whine about it forever and never go. Either grow some balls and stay, or grow some balls and go.

Me neither, I agree after the PM I received support and those who believe that I'm stupid is mistaken about me I do see what happens or do understand between lines.
I have a handicap with my English but I do not think I need to take some English speaking class and all his members who support me here at my thread or pm have made me reconsider my decision.
And if I do not understand something, I know who to ask.

And I'm not a soft ball, I'm a conservative but I'm sensitive because I have a big heart and i proud of that.

Be yourself, have fun and always look for opportunities to grow.

An interesting question: Will French make it to the year 3000 as a living language?

But i love you for sure American People

The only word I know in French is Ami. I only met two Frenchmen in my life which was in 1971 in a Navy School and they were there because they are NATO. The Navy school was Classified and can't divulge anymore than that.

edit: I can divulge that French Sailors have a red ball on top of their flat hat. The red ball is about the size of a ping pong ball and forbidden for an American to touch.

You gotta be more careful! One of them was wearing a wire.

Canadians have a bone to pick. We should have invaded and conquered Canada shortly after the Revolutionary War and in fact we tried but were defeated at the Gates of Ottawa.

You are right ,flacaltenn those who wanted to play with me but more badly were more accurate, but there are those who pranks at me leaves the doubt.
There are those who answer in half, In any case my entourage tell me what are you doing to go to an American forum like that?
And yes, I have good reason if I want to get away from this French world and travel a litlle to the USA I have to come here.
And if I go there one day, I could ask for advice here

It's the same for you, if you come to France you can ask me for advice

The accent is hard to understand sometimes quite right, I have a deep country accent as if I had a hot potato in the mouth

Translate in English the video


Your great-great-grandfather, he cleared the land
Your great-grandfather, he plowed the earth
And your grandfather has made the land profitable
And your father, he sold it to become a civil servant

And you, my boy, you know it more than you'll do
In your little three and a half too expensive, fret in winter
It's your desire to become an owner
And you dream at night to have your little piece of land

Your great-great-grandmother, she had fourteen children
Your great-grandmother had almost as much
And your grandmother had three it was enough
And your mother did not want it; you were an accident

And you, my little girl, you change partners all the time
When you do bullshit, you run away by aborting
But there are mornings, you wake up crying
When you dream the night of a big table surrounded by children

Your great-great-grandfather lived the big misery
Your great-grandfather, he picked up the black cennes
And your grandfather - miracle! - became a millionaire
Your father inherited it, he put it all in his RRSPs

And you, little youth, you owe your ass to the ministry
No way to have a loan in a banking institution
To calm your desires to hold-up the cashier
You read books that speak of voluntary simplicity

Your great-great-grandparents, they knew how to celebrate
Your great-grandparents, it swissed loudly in the evenings
And your grandparents knew the time yé-yé
Your parents were the discos; that's where they met

And you, my friend, what are you doing with your party?
Turn off your tivi; do not stay stuck
Fortunately in 'life some things refuse to change
Put on your best clothes because we are going to dance tonight …







Sometimes I'm fed up so I speak English to the French for fun but still with an accent

And here in France they do not always understand me so you understand me more when I speak with my accent but in English.

Your English is better than some of the people I work with, and it is, allegedly, their first language. That is they grew up speaking English. And yet the ignorant rubes are unable to form a grammatically correct sentence, verbally nor written...

Thank you, I spent my adolescence in Ottawa all my friends spoke English my father spoke English too but the rest of my family spoke Quebecois but here in France I speak with my Dialect people like a lot but most think I come from the north Normandy the language is similar. the history of Quebec language comes more from Normandy so it's similar
