Parlez Vous Francais?

Guess what Josh and I are up too? 

rosetta-french We ordered French, courses 1-5, and are homeschooling ourselves and learning French together!  It’s really fun!  We’ve set aside time once a week from our busy schedules that we dedicate to doing a session or two together.

We just completed our second class and we started learning questions and answers already!  It’s amazing.  We both took 2 years of French in High School, but hardly retained any of it.  Josh’s only saying in French before we started these classes was: “Je m'apel Josh”!

The best part is, our reward for completing the entire course is a trip to France!!  I can’t wait!!

Je voudrais un verre de vin,  s’il vous plait!

    THAT IS AWESOME! Ryan had only mentioned that he wants this program for Spanish about a million times! It never even occurred to me that we should do it together! Another great idea from Team Green!

    We did that with Italian. Except Andrew kept going with it, and I lost steam...and, well, we've still not been to Italy.

    Thanks for inspiring me to get those discs back out!

    That sounds like so much fun. Well at least the vacation part. Languages are my worst subject and do not come naturally to me in any way.

    Good luck, and enjoy it! Sounds like a fun thing to do, and I am cracking up that you referred to it as "homeschooling ourselves" - too funny!

    Bonjour Ami!

    La bonne chance apprenant à parler la langue d'amour! Paris est encore plus beau quand vous pouvez communiquer avec les gens du pays. La perspective est magnifique.

    Je voudrais un verre de vin aussi!

    **Study up and we can chat :)

    Aurevoir,
    Andrea xoxo
