"French Diary"

Dedicated to my french teacher Emylene madame (French word madam).

The first i took this course because of my attraction towards Emylene madam, here i don't mean that i don't like to learn languages. The way she teaches is like wow. I feel very comfortable and we can ask any kind of question to her, very frank and the best part is to see her expressions, when she smiles and when she scold us those expressions are adorable.  Yesterday (02-03-2012 ) was my first french exam and i think probably i will pass it.As the course is proceeding it is going difficult, french is not  very small language and have very rich in vocabulary as well as their grammar is difficult to grasp. But still we find similarity of this language with hindi and english and sometimes we understand french lines that makes her very surprising.

                           But still we find our benefit and the question raised in my mind was that, why i am studying french and I searched on google for the utility of french language and why study french? the article i found is http://www.fll.vt.edu/French/whyfrench.html.
According to me why i am studying french my answer would be....

1. It makes me confident because it separates me from the crowd or others
2. It makes me to understand the french culture.
3. How french people view the things, their attitude towards a problems.
4. The most important is you are able to make friends easily i think that is the best part. .......   The incident of mine with jennifer ( phd  scholar), and eulis a french undergraduate student. I easily made them my friend by using some of the french words.... :)

Study of my french language is going as follows

Lesson 1 The first two classes we learn alphabets and how we pronounce them
Lesson 2 Informal and formal situations, which words we use in these situations.
Lesson 3 Writing and understanding visiting cards.
Lesson 4 Description of a person or kind of Bio data I mean how you will write your Bio data and understand other's bio data.
Lesson 5 Subjects and understanding the "eter" and "avoir" verbs.


                   Probably the time will come when i will write my full post in french language and specially dedicate it to my french friends hey don't panic yaar i will translate it in english too ha ha :).
Constant inspiration, motivation and reinforcement is required from you all my friends and i think my passion towards french will continue..................................

merci (french word for thank you) for reading this post ...
