    I sometimes wish I had taken a more "useful" language, but Latin was more than interesting enough to make language my favorite subject for a few years.

    Bonjour.
    And that is the extent of my knowledge of the French language.

    Fuck Ezio. He's not an assassin. He's just throwing on a blatantly obvious costume and using a pop out blade.

    I'ma dress up as Corvo. Thats a badass there.

    This was definitely an assassination attempt. Myyt and the soda obviously collaborated and totally just tried to kill you.

    (Also, if you soda ever comes out your nose from laughing.. it burns like hell. I do not recommend it.)

    As far as French goes, I've always wanted to learn it -- it's really pretty to listen to people speak it and I've been trying to teach myself; it's a lot harder than I thought it was because a lot of the words are pronounced very similarly (for plurals and pronouns and other nonsense), so it makes it hard to differentiate what people are actually saying when I listen to it. I took 6 years of Spanish throughout school and it's far easier (in my mind) to learn/understand. (That could be because my family spoke a lot of Italian growing up, which sounds/works a lot like Spanish, where French is more it's own thing.)

    I've been taking Spanish since I was six. It's safe to say I know a lot of it. But now I've run out of Spanish classes officially and French just sounds nice. My friend LOVES French, and she'll teach me well. I can read it approximately since French and Spanish are spelled similarly, but actually SAYING it is way different. You can't roll your Rs I heard. XD

    M first spoken/written language is french. French Canadian, which is considerably different from France French.

    Learn to speak and not write it, writing it sucks ass and it's hard and it sucks ass.

    I actually kind of wish I'd taken French in school. I took Spanish because I thought it would be more useful in the long run and a lot of my friends were taking it, so I wanted to be able to converse with them in the new language. (Because the youthful exuberance of 7th grade made the idea of such shenanigans seem practically irresistible. XD) I still feel like it's probably the more useful language to know because more people in the USA are likely to have Spanish as a second language than they are likely to have French, but I think I probably would have been better served to learn French in school (seeing how tricky it appears to be to learn on my own), and then learned Spanish afterwards.

    You're lucky you have a friend that can teach you; I'd love to know someone who spoke French that could teach me how!

    I used to speak french fairly well, but I've forgotten it over the years because I never used it. Welp, waste of my time learning it...I enjoyed the language though. I'd like to learn japanese though because its very contextual, and I find it more of a romantic language compared to french.
    This is my design
