Who studies FRENCH?

[kirikiri94]

Who studies FRENCH at school or elsewhere? How good are you and do you have the opportunity to speak French?

Bravo à tous ceux qui apprennent le Français. C'est une très belle langue, chargée d'histoire et de culture.

[jayyy-lmao]

I do French in school, but I've only been doing it for a year. I'm not exceptional, but I got a B. I don't really get a chance to speak au français normally. (Did I spell that right?)
Bonjour, monsieur kirikiri94. Je m'appelle Jenny. J'ai treize ans et je suis une enfant unique. J'habite a Dublin, Ireland, et je suis en cinquieme. J'ai douze matiere, et je me prefere Français et musique. Comment tu t'appelles? Ça va?

(Sorry if my spelling or grammar is wrong. I tried!)

[Seth.]

I'm part French and fairly fluent in the language.

[purrincess]

I did for three years but I'm dropping it next year because I'm not doing it for GCSE.
I'm actually rather terrible at it, embarrassingly enough. :P & I don't know any French people so I'm safe, I don't need to know it (yet at least)

[britishboy]

I do:'(

[Life's Like This]

I study French. Mais c'est une langue difficile.

[Croconaw]

I don't study it, but it's offered at school.

[Lost in the Echo]

I don't. But eventually i'd like to learn a new language, and french seems pretty cool.

[DerBear]

I studied French while at High School I took to it quite well but it was never something I really enjoyed or wanted to continue further in life.

[Cygnus]

I studied Frech for a year at my school, since I already speak spanish it is very simple for me to understand and speak it. Reading and writing is another subject though.

[Yugen]

French was pretty much forced at my old school. J'aime parler francais au magasin de confondre les gens.

[youthought08]

I study at a private Catholic school, which is run by French nuns, and the neighborhood I live in has a lot of French people, that's why I am studying French right now. It's actually the only foreign language in my school right now.

Something I find very difficult with French is the accent et gu and the gender of nouns.

And I do agree. French is definitely full of rich history and culture.

[Manga]

I took two years of french, aber Ich lerne Deutsch in meine Schule.

[xChrisVx]

I did French on the side after school when I was 14 but I never learned much. Last year I had to choose a class to help out with as part of a peer mentoring programme. I chose S1 German (11 yr olds) because I've learnt it for the last 7 years but this changed to French at the last minute. Thankfully the knowledge I had was enough to see me through.

I'm crashing a Higher in it this year if I don't go to university - but uni is the goal

[removeddddd]

Studied it at secondary school, it's one of those subjects where you actually have to try and learn and study it, learnt that the hard way and now i'm waiting for my GCSE results and i probably failed so bad

[Grand Admiral Thrawn]

I do.

I take Spanish in school, but I've also been taking French courses for a few months this year. Gonna pick them up again when I go back to school.

[Gigablue]

I've been taking French for 11 years, and will continue for another two. I'm basically fluent in it, with the exception of some very obscure grammar.

[Rayquaza]

I studied it for 4 years but then gave it up because languages confuse me.

[Jess]

My middle and high school offers French as one of the languages. in 7th grade you can choose two languages; after that, you have to pick one. I chose Spanish and French when I was in 7th grade

[Princess Ariel]

I studied french in school from the age of 8 to the age of 15. It's exhausting, but at least I can travel to France and hold a conversation.

[Elysium]

I study French in school. I've studied it for four years now. I don't know how good I am, but I hope to one day be fluent.

[Magenta]

Unless someone actively bilingual comes along, I might have everyone beat at the moment. :P I was learning to read in French when I was two or three, long before I learned to read in English. So everyone has been speaking French around me since I was a baby.

However, I'm only about 3/4 fluent. I don't speak it well. Actually, I do and I don't. I can read in French and listen to conversations and know exactly what is being said but I have difficulty forming more complex sentences on my own. I can do it but not to the same extent as someone truly bilingual.

So besides learning it at home, I also took six mandatory years of it at school. I was meant to be put in a French school but for some reason that never happened. I have plenty of chance to practice. If I wanted to learn more, I could just go live with my grandmother for a week or so and I'd be speaking fluently by the end of it. I kinda regret not taking more classes in high school just for the refresher. (I was pulling 90s in that class easily.)

[MrDaniel2K13]

I've studied French for about 5 years,c'est bof

[brokendishes]

The french at my old school was crappy, so now I'm learning through an online program. I'm not very good at French...

I don't speak it, but it was offered to me as an alternative to Spanish. Living in Florida I figures it was smarter to take Spanish lol

Let me correct your sentences:

I underlined the mistakes. Bravo, tu es très bon en Français.

[cant_stop18]

I did French for a year and now again this summer, tbf i don't speak a word and i am probably going to fail a test next week : (

[teen.jpg]

I think I'm taking French freshman year, but I have no experience in it so I'm kind of nervous.

[Steven1]

I have done for the last 6 years, when I was bunged in a French class in year 5. I hated it back then, even more than PE, but I grew to like it. I took it as a GCSE (I get my results in a couple of weeks, if I remember I'll post my grade on this thread), but alas have now left school. As its not something that would be as helpful as other subjects in my future I'm not taking it at A-Level. C'etait matiere genial! (I think that's right ("it's a great lesson")) :)

[Party256]

I do study it, but I am like a B student

[NeuroTiger]

Je ne fais plus le français pour mon A-level. Deux année de cela,je faisais le français et réussis les épreuves de français avec un A*.
Je suis relativement bon en français et parle la langue plus ou moins bien.
Bein,les francophones, je suis ouvert à vous parler et devenir amis.

La phrase "je suis un enfant unique", n'aurait-elle pas dû dire "je suis enfant unique" tout simplement?

[kirikiri94]

La phrase "je suis un enfant unique", n'aurait-elle pas dû dire "je suis enfant unique" tout simplement?

Les deux se disent, mais pas nécessairement dans le même contexte.

[plebble]

I studied GCSE French, I got a B grade

good talent - I do not do languages - but stcik in

[justin 13]

I do and spanish also.

[The Flash]

I had to take French for the last like 6 years.
Let's say, those 6 years were useless.
And I do have an opportunity to parle le Francais, parce que j'habite a cote de Quebec.

The only other phrases I know how to say are "Est-ce que je peux aller aux toilette?" and "Je ne comprende pas"

[DerBear]

I did study French for about 5 years

[Turbo]

Yep, I've studied it for three or four years now. Still, I'm not very good at it...

[sean_james]

I've been doing it since I was about 10 years old. I'm not fluent but I can get the Jist of most things I see or hear.

[LiamC]

J'ai étudié le français pendant cinq ans, mais j'ai étudié l'italien pour l'année dernier et maintentant je ne suis pas en train d'étudier une langue, je vais étudier la littérature anglaise, de langue anglaise, de la sociologie, de la psychologie.

I *think* that makes sense :p I'm a bit rusty having done Italian instead for my final year, I passed French in year 10!

[gone123]

I was in French immersion from kindergarten until the end of grade 9 so I can speak and understand fluent French. I rarely use it though.

[SawyerSauce]

Je parle un peu de français. Je suis une étudiante de troisième année au le lycée. La langue est très belle :) C'est romantique.

[Twilly F. Sniper]

My school doesn't have French :/ If It did I would be taking that instead of Spanish.

[Plane And Simple]

I have studied French for 3 years now, but this year I had to choose between french, technology (IT), Latin and Informatics and I chose technology. I feel bad because I loved the language and enjoyed the classes, and the teacher was awesome, but I guess it's the best for me

Hello.

I've studied French all my life, mother tongue oblige. I am not sure that if it weren't so, that I would take it. I don't see the "beauty", the "usefulness" or the "culture" : I think it's ugly, it's definitely past its prime in terms of use and every language has a culture, I could go and learn Ainu and recite oral sagas and it would be the same thing.

Honestly? I'd rather learn Chinese. It's ugly as balls but it makes up for it in the other two departments.

[Nicola14Swaggy]

I'm studying it 3 years now in school,i would understand a conservation but im not that good at speaking currently

[CharlieHorse]

I used to but I sucked at it and now i am struggling to learn Spanish.

[ogsteez]

Germannnn

[QuantumPhysics]

I took two years of french, aber Ich lerne Deutsch in meine Schule.

I love Getman!!!!! Es ist die bester!

[justin 13]

I do.

[Starling City]

I'm currently in French II. It's nice to learn about the history of the language, but I don't see myself ever attempting fluency in it.

[NikosamA98]

Je suis un étudiant de français but in not vert good :(

[audiophile5]

Je parle francais (un peu). Je pense que francais est tres belle aussi. J'etudie a l'ecole et je lis un lit aussi

[Syvelocin]

I was in an immersion programme. So ten years of exposure to French not counting my family, although that sounds like more than it is because only six of those were immersion years. I used to be not fluent, but able to express myself with a large vocabulary pool and correct grammar, then I moved so I couldn't continue the programme in secondary and most of my verbal ability has gone to the back of my brain from being so unused. I still have great pronunciation and comprehension though. But now I'm stuck because to get into the state university, I need a transcript with two years of foreign language and so I have to take French 1 for the third time in my life. I'm both excited to get my skills back and dreading the memories of all that attention I received the last time I was the lone Frenchie (that's what the immersion kids were all called) in a class of beginners.

I'm sad it's being removed from the curriculum of some schools. I'm not a fan of Spanish, and since I have the French experience I find no use for learning Spanish since I can usually pick out Latin roots and fill in the blanks. But, French is more than a language to me. It's my childhood, and although I don't have a ton of French blood, French is really important in my family too. My aunt used to send me postcards from France and it was really frustrating when every year I'd need to pull out my dictionary for more and more words she wrote. It's such a big part of me, and it disappeared so quickly.

J'espère que c'est le temps.

[Miri]

I'm fluent in French, I've basically learned it along with english, or I starter a year or two after. I don't speak french with an "english accent".

[Miserabilia]

I do, I love it .

[TheLivingLie]

i do it but im rubbish...
