Just something I learned in second grade in French class! :beaten:

:google: I had to read it twice, decrypt it thrice but I'll only re-write it once:
Excusez-moi. Est-ce je peux partir s'il vous pla?t madame?!

Apparently you were in a hurry to leave the French classroom :sweat:

And to stay on topic, yes there are Japanese people in France and I found a culture exchange group in Lyon. :)

I guess Helene and I could give you guys some catch-up lessons maybe in another forum, this one is starting to get crowded :sweat:

Anything goods you have to tell me on Manami-chan would be appreciated in exchange, Cass :love_eyes: << kanojo wa watashi no konomi da yo.

*Niko, repeat after me, chick is "poule" (poole) in French but don't use that on them :mrgreen:
**Helene, regarde dans tes vieux messages ici, je suis sur que je t'ai laiss? les coordonn?es du groupe sur Lyon.

non, je ne retrouve plus les coordonnées du groupe à Lyon :(

saiki -- je devine la "poule" est un mot derogitory, non? :sweat: est-il vrai qu'Europeens regardent vers le bas sur des Asiatiques ?

De rien!

Actually it's "...nihongo (w)o hanasemasuka?" but in actual speech the "-go wo" combination is pretty hard to catch :sweat:
Thanks for the CM links! (Sugoi otonappoi mitai nante Manami-chan!)

As for finding pen pals Helene, a quick google gives you lots of choice:

If I were you I'd rather look for a pen pal of your gender, boys tend to be a little 'sukebe' (obsede de la chose) when it comes to foreigners :naughty:

No French lesson here! Unless the site name changes to F-drama :hehe:

Moi !!! ^^

O.k. C'est vrai que je parle francais, mais je suis quebecoise pas francaise et j'aime la France depuis l'age de 9 ou 10 ans (je vais avoir 19 ans dans moins d'un mois)
La France etait mon pays prefere avant que je ne commence a aimer le Japon. Aujourd'hui le Japon est le premier sur ma liste des pays a visiter, mais la France est numero 2 ^^

Ma mere est incapable d'ecouter un film francais (oui, vous dites que nous avons un accent, mais ca va dans les deux sens ca ^^'), mais moi j'aime bien les films francais. Est-ce qu'il y a des films quebecois qui ont franchi l'ocean jusqu'en France ?! Je ne sais pas, mais ca m'etonnerais, parce que l'industrie cinematographique en est encore a ses debuts ici.

De toute facon, je suis certaine que pas meme le quart de la planete sait qu'il y a une province ou les gens parlent majoritairement francais au Canada T-T La triste verite... J'ai deja correspondu avec un chinois et je pense qu'il n'arrivait pas a comprendre que je puisse parler francais comme langue maternelle, mais ne pas etre nee en France =\

X-x Should I have posted that in english ?!
Nan... It will make all of you practice ;P
