Guys,

I was talking with a woman. She's a Haitian-American. Her mom is American and her father is Haitian, but her dad taught her French, Creole and Spanish and she is fluent with all of them.

Slavery and the colonization of countries wasn't a great thing for many of our ancestors. It took away our native things things and we had to adpat to things that wasn't from their own cultures. There was nothing great to say about that, but if there is anything good( if you want to call it that) that I can say the slavemasters left for some Black people is that they were left speaking another language. I just envy foreign Black people who can speak more than one language. Even if they are from the English-speaking part oftheir countries, they speak their native language. I haven't met too many that couldn't.

Over here in the states, we only speak English unless you're from Louisiana. Although some of them don't speak the traditional french( some of them Speak creole French), in some ways they still speak French or in Places like New York or Florida where you can find people speaking Spanish. Currently, I 'm taking a Spanish class and I still study my French because I want to lean to speak at least 3 languages( Spanish, French, maybe Portuguese or Arabic---but I think that Arabic is more important to speak than Portuguese). I just enjoy language classes. Rightfully, I should be speaking Vietnamese or Japanese . A Japanese woman that my dad kew taught me how to count through 1-5 in Japanese. I don't know how to spell it in japanese but I remembered she said 1) Nee-chee 2) Pee 3) son 4) she 5) go. That stayed in my mid as a kid and to reconfirmed it I talked with a japanese( language) teacher about it and she said that I was correct). I remembered my dad talking a little Vietnamese and truthfully, that should have been one the first languages I should have learned because I was around a lot of Vietnamese influences, but I never got it.Anyways, I'm enjoying learning French and Spanish. maybe one day I'll get Arabic or Portuguese and maybe I learn the whole Japanese numeric thing. Now I thought that French was hard. Japanese is 20 times harder to learn. The problem that got me the first time is the characters they use to spell words with. I didn't get that at all!

Rachelle,

I needed those questions because I'm trying to better improve my French

So you asked

1)Vis-tu a Paris?

2) Sont-ils de NY?

3) Sais-tu jouer de la musique classique?

My answers( ifyou approached me with these questions)

1) Non, je ne vis pas in Paris. J'habite aux-Etats-Unis.

2) Non,ilsne sontpasde New York.Ilssontde Georgie.

3) Non, je ne said pas comment jouer la musique classique., Je ne sais pas comment jouer musique a toute!

1) No I do not live in Paris, I live in the US

2) No, They are not from NY, the are from Georgia

3) No, I do not play know how to play classical music. I do not know how to play music at all.

I'm still in secure about saying some things like with saying "in" in French I get confused putting it in the right text because you have "dans" En" and then "a", They all means in, but when , what and where are you suppose to use it?

Merci pour les questions.( Thank for the questions)

very good clp)

but

Non, je ne sais pas comment on joue de la musique classique. Je ne sais pas du tout comment on joue de la musique...

in french you don't use gerund that often...instead of "comment jouer", we use "comment on joue";3rd person

not at all (engl.) - pas du tout (fr.)
that's really hard now
