Speak for yourself, I found English fascinating. On a side note, that you may find interesting, it frustrated the fuck out of both me and my maths teacher that I was good at physics equations but could not work them out in maths class. Took me and him until my last year at school to figure out it was because in maths the letters did not pertain to anything and thus I could not make my brain recognise that it was the function that was important not the arbitrary letters used. The letters were making me think it was all just nonsense.

how can you grace that set of barbarous gruntings with the name of "language"?

French is a language.

French is adequate for addressing waiters and whores but that's all.

Hah! Barely. Just because your hootings have less use of hard vowels (gay by the way) doesn't make it any more elegant, tart it up how you wish, you call potatoes apples of earth and a tostie a Mister Crunchy. You have the linguistic descriptive abilities of children.

So NYAH!

I've talked a few ladies out of their panties by whispering French and/or Italian to them. They had no idea what I was saying, of course. :smoke:

So, what's the "Englishing" equivalent of "frenching"?

You were calling names that would make whores blush and give a heart attack to a bepoxed pimp, of course.

Actually, I was using a lot of military terms I learned while working with NATO forces in Sicily. One gal gave in to a list of Italian military aircraft. :hehe: klr would have probably done the same. :naughty:
