While I was living en belle France I discovered that if I didn't know a word I could just try the english word with a bad accent and it would work about 75% of the time. as someone who learned french (i like to think reasonably if not poetically well) I thought I'd help out by teaching you a phrase that you are unlikely to learn in any french textbook. "Tu me caisses les couilles!" = You are breaking my balls. It makes me laugh to think back on it. I heard it ALL the time from my handball coach. At literally every practice and every game. but do you know the best part of learning french? it is the wonderful fun you can have conversing in franglais. bon courage! tu commencera à apprendre le français? heureusement il y a plein de mots qui sont pareils qu’en anglais! happily there are lots of words that are almost exactly the same… w/ just a small touch of accent.

I'm a very self-motivated person, but it wasn't always like that. I also used to be very negative-minded, but that leads nowhere. No, I think I agree with all of that.
