notdog1996 315 January 16, 2014 Share January 16, 2014 I'm learning tons of languages, so of course I know useless sentences! Well, it's more that I know how to build useless sentences. I could say that I know how to say ''I'm a carrot'' in Norwegian (Jeg er un gulerod, put a bar on the o), just because I can. In Italian, I can build small sentences, including completely useless ones, same in Spanish but I can do more complex ones. ''Sono una carota'' ''Soy una zanahoria'' Yup, just because I can . Well, I study French, so I have these: Une plaque d'immatriculation (a number/licence plate). Not that useless in everyday conversation, but I was originally taught this in the first unit of beginner French. Not only did it take me forever to pronounce it properly back then, but we basically never used it anywhere. Un fessé (a spanking, not sure if spelt right). This was in a university vocab list. I shit you not (though, they probably meant it in a different context...) ''Une fessée'', it's feminine It is used almost exclusively when talking about punishing young kids. It is often used as such in expressions. It's still weird that you would learn that as first vocabulary, though :\ Things like ''fromage'', ''chien'' or even ''fusée'' are used more often. Tu c'est une poule moillet. I think that's how it's spelled.... You're a wet chicken in french. ''Tu es une poule mouillée.'' would be the right way to spell it, actually It's an expression to say that someone is a scaredy cat. 1 INTJ Introvert(56%) iNtuitive(12%) Thinking(75%) Judging(1%) You have moderate preference of Introversion over Extraversion (56%) You have slight preference of Intuition over Sensing (12%) You have distinctive preference of Thinking over Feeling (75%) You have marginal or no preference of Judging over Perceiving (1%) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RuqyoHighsong 23 January 16, 2014 Share January 16, 2014 Yeah, so I took (and suffered) Chinese class for two years. The only things I could remember are numbers and this phrase: "Ni hao ma! Wo jiao _____. Wo yao chi ni. Xie xie." (Hello, how are you! My name is ____. I want to eat you. Thank you.) ^ Will totally come in handy one day. I am pretty sure that 'My name is ____" is "Wo de mingzi shi ____." 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

notdog1996 315 January 16, 2014 Share January 16, 2014 how do you get the accent over the E? Je tentative parle francais... Just like he said, when you speak a roman language, your key board as keys to put those : é è ê ç â ë ô à û I think that's pretty much all those there are in French. If there's any others, you can be sure we don't use them often Oh, and I think there's an option to unlock them on your key board if you go into the options of your computer. Our teacher showed it to us when we wrote in Spanish. 1 INTJ Introvert(56%) iNtuitive(12%) Thinking(75%) Judging(1%) You have moderate preference of Introversion over Extraversion (56%) You have slight preference of Intuition over Sensing (12%) You have distinctive preference of Thinking over Feeling (75%) You have marginal or no preference of Judging over Perceiving (1%) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SanityNotIncluded 335 January 17, 2014 Share January 17, 2014 how do you get the accent over the E? Je tentative parle francais... You don't actually need a French keyboard. If your keyboard has a numpad on the right, then you can usually use accent keys. Basically, you hold down left alt and enter a four digit code on said numpad. For an example, left alt+0233 = é, left alt+0224 = à, etc. This website has a list of all of them: http://symbolcodes.tlt.psu.edu/bylanguage/french.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
