I'm absolutely terrible with languages so it would be pathetic if I forget my Gr. 10 French or my Gr. 12 Spanish. If I had my way, I'd watch every DVD with the French or Spanish subtitles on. I always get outvoted on that one although sometimes they'll agree to English subtitles if the dialogue is mumbled or there's a long phone conversation happening in the room (even though the cord is long enough to be in 3 other areas of the house) or Peter is drumming.
Check out this site http://french-word-a-day.typepad.com/ She posts 3 times a week and only introduces a few French words into each of her blog posts. While you're there, click on "links". She has an interesting array of links for those who want to be more seriously curious about anything French.

About Me
- ruthdemitroff
- In the 1970's, I was studying English Lit and Psychology at UWO, worked as a legal secretary, graduated as a nurse from Fanshawe College and then worked in the HR department of General Motors. In the 1980s I was back at UWO putting hubby through part of his B.A. in History and his M.Div. Since then I'm a clergy wife with 4 offspring in their 20s and I'm still putting one through business. Now it's time to find a new learning passion and I've chosen e-learning.
