Werl, it's the accent, innit? sniff Nobody said nuffink about gettin' the words right, y'know?
My French may be questionable, but I know my accent is good since I have a musical ear. I found it on the floor of a barber's shop in Penge. Bada-boom, and thank you to the highly steamed and pressed Goon Show, best of British if ever there was...
The Goon show was slightly before my time (albeit I caught up later). It was the Goodies for me as a kid...
He he... y'know that I cheated there and used Google Translate? :biggrin:
I usually have reasonable comprehension when it comes to Latin-rooted languages... from the little bit of Latin I did at school... but unfortunately I had to drop French after O'Grade. Couldn't elect to do both French and Art at Higher... absurdly.
So my vocab is sadly lacking, past being able to ask the baker for the usual round of breakfast croissants and bread... a daily ritual when we're down in the French med.
