IKOOLA, marlon?

I'm really sorry, but that sounds like the French verb "encouler" to me..

Okay, I detested my French teacher; she was a horrible person, so I never learned French in a proper way.
That's probably why I made this mistake.

yeah, yeah, go blame it on the teacher :rolleyes:

perhaps, you were just a little bit too occupied with something else, during your French class :wink:

Il faut faire attention, mon ami, la connaissance des langues est plus importante que la connaissance des femmes !

:rolleyes:

Hey, what are you implying there; I was the only boy in that damn French class!

The guy I had the hots for was in the German class; German was one of my favourite subjects..

I love German too. My teacher was a real wacko though, but extremely interesting. As an assignment, we once had to explain in german how our parents met each other and where we were, eerr, conceived :smile:
Really, again no joke...language-classes are real fun and i miss 'em

:smile: These questions of yours :smile: Marvellous :smile:


Outsider, i think you rock, really,

what an inquisitive mind you have up there...

marlon

Thank you Marlon... :blushing: this is especially meaningful as it comes from someone who is clearly well respected on these PF boards.

I want to induce thinking and understanding among all people... i realize that this is an impossible goal for one person, but if many people continue to work towards greater understanding... we can achieve a greater harmony... The Internet is such a great tool for this as we can all shed our alliances and associations and speak freely to find that higher ground.

Once politics are removed "necessary science" can save us and "inquisitive science" will take us beyond.

I used to be a great communicator until I began posting in General Discussion. Since then, the quality of my posts has dramatically declined.
