What exactly is wrong with French? I never did understand this anglo-canadian high school student mentality against it. I think it's a lovely language.

Johnny · Post by **Johnny** » 2/15/2005, 10:02 pm

I just sucked at it.

i meant in general
everyone seems to hate it

Johnny · Post by **Johnny** » 2/15/2005, 10:09 pm

oh, well I don't hate it. I just never understood how to speak it. In fact, I never got past jemapple and aurevior. And I am fairly sure that I mispelled those.

I loved it. I was in french immersion for 8 years.

I sucked at french. I took it for four semesters in grade 9 and 10. I was totally glad to be done with it. I remember so very little. But, I didn't hate it while I was doing it, and I had a really crappy teacher.

I've always loved french. Its one of canadas languages, I think everyone should know both.

Unless, you're not Canadian.

ive wondered that too
i think part of it is the way the language is taught
if one learns how to use the language in a practical manner rather than the formal verb conjugation, etc of the language they appreciate it more

when i was in school, we learned how not to use it almost
it wasnt enjoyable
it was formal and annoying

my brother however, (hes in IB) they pick up le monde, and other papers, etc and look at the language from a more practical sense
