French

3rd day of the new semester.
Went for French tutorial today. I was the only one in my class who got into this French class but one good thing was, there are many people that are also on their own.
The French tutor was kind of alright. She started speaking to us in French and I don't understand one thing. After a while, I caught what she was saying. She would 1st introduced herself then asked for your name. You've got to reply her in French like this, Je m'appelle ( insert your name here). We also learnt to speak about our nationality and the French alphabet. It was funny to learn all the alphabets but in a different kind of pronunciation. For example B is pronounced as "bay" and X as "eeks".
I know some very basic French but I'm sure a lot of people do as well.
Quite interesting and since I was the one who chose this CDS, I had better live with it. I have always shows great interest for foreign languages like Italian and Spanish and this is a good chance for me.
Actually, I wanted to learn Italian or Spanish more as I listen to some Italian and Spanish songs and try to memorise the lyrics. I've yet to encounter something French.
Anyway, till next time
