I spent so much time surfing their site that my homework went undone at the end of the day. It had been a pleasure to refresh my memories by reading some explanations of colloquial expressions contained in one of my favorite languages.
French is the tricky language par excellence. Words are very often not spelled the way they sound. This can cause heavy headaches. If your headaches persist, only one thing can save your mental : take your French manual and your mattress to the doctor’s waiting room. Stay there and make yourself comfortable until you are done with your French learning. Then and only then you can get back home.
Have you noticed how many difficult French words the young participants of the Spelling Bee contest must SPELL RIGHT in order to win? So difficult French words that lots of people living in France and using their mother tongue on a daily basis are unable to spell correctly.
