| Bullshit cough for French 101: Before I went for my winter break,I attended a meeting of the French club Because that day I had no class to attend. So as a gesture of friendship I went to this meeting with Dana. After the meeting there were some people from my French 101 class and one of them Was saying how when we were in class, when the teacher asked me how I knew my French and that my reply of �I learned it from watching movies and Canadian TV�, one of the girls said that the basic reaction of the rest of the class was the �bullshit cough.� The bullshit cough can be described as an act of blatant non-believance. I think I just made up the non-believance term,but whatever; what they do is pretend to cough into their hand while saying bullshit rather hurriedly. Anyhow, I found that somewhat amusing that people would say that,but then again I knew I�d probably get on people�s nerves for being full fledged interested in learning languages. I was mistaken for an english person and then a famous popstar: While I was staying in France during my winter break I was at a Christmas eve party at cyr�s house where the daughter of Chantal (Chantal is Gilles� (cyr�s older brother) fianc�e) Gaelle Was excited to speak to me(I don�t know young people especially foreign ones seem to like to speak English with me all the time) So she began by asking questions about me, she stumbled a bit in English,but that�s natural she�s only .. I think 11. I found some of her questions bizarre because she was asking me �Do you like the buses in England?.� So after such an array of strange questions, I asked Cyr why she was asking stuff like that and so it turns out that Gaelle had thought that I was from England! I quickly looked at Gaelle and told her in French that I didn�t sound anything like an English person. After we clarified that I was from North America, Gaelle then started asking me questions about music people. Like most little ones she likes Britney Spears and she asked me if I liked her. Then out of nowhere she tells me �Toi et Britney Spears a la meme accent!� )Trans; You and B.S. have the same accent!� This of course is not true; B.S. is from Lousiana and has a slight drawl and I from the Northern Midwest do not sound anything like B.S. ! Hmm.. little ones are funny aren�t they? |
