I wish  we played 'who wants to be a Millionaire' this morning which was fun.  I seem to be able to graspe the written word rather than hearing it spoken  and DH is OK with speaking it.  What with the above and taking my 'flash cards' if we ever travel to France at least we won't starve

L'effort collectif alors, peasy facile!

Joint effort then, easy peasy!

[CLKD]

 

so far we've done greetings, food, ordering in a cafe, counting, alphabet, reading a menu, a family tree  , a crossword, Who Wants to Be; it's when we have to converse with each other , 5 in the class plus the teacher that I get confused.  Even with my prompt sheets in front I get confused 

[CLKD]

We are trying to talk with each other in anything other than English  but I do forget the linking words 

[flushtered]

Try learning vocabularly the way we did at school, five or ten words each night to learn?
e.g.

because = parce que
then = alors
so = ainsi
while = pendant que
when = quand

[CLKD]

I can read it and kind of understand it, then it goes out of my brain  - we have been talking about breakfast every morning as we prepare it and during the day we ask whether we want tea/coffee/buns

We had German students in our workplace and I couldn't understand a word they were saying  - so much for thinking my schoolgirl german was still good, but then my schoolgirl days were such a long time ago

   I have sent DH to Class and stayed here to clear up the house and complete the packing prior to going away this afternoon ....... wonder how he is getting on 

[CLKD]

Have sent DH off for the Class, my brain can't take in anything this week (after a difficult weekend with mother  ).

He is already talking about going onto the 2nd Course 

[flushtered]

Bon pour lui, il doit l'apprécier.
Good for him, he must be enjoying it.

[CLKD]

I guess so  ....... I enjoyed it but didn't enjoy not absorbing what I was trying to learn ........

[CLKD]

DH continues with his lessons ……… not for me though, I drop by the Class occasionally for a quick Bon jour ……

J'aime bien la langue francaise!  En fait, j'aime: la nourriture francaise, la musique francaise, les chansons francais, les vetements francais, la France, et les francais leur memes.  Je prefere de visiter la France sur tous les pays du monde!  (Ou quelque chose!)   And now I need to go and eat some chocolate (manger du chocolat!).

It was my best shot at saying - I love the French language! In fact, I love - French food, French music, French songs, French music, French clothes, France, and the French themselves.  France is my favourite country in the world to visit! (Or something!)

If there's anyone who's French reading this, please excuse my mistakes!
