My father's really fluent in French, but I can't speak at all. I actually took it twice in school already and failed both times!
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
When I got to college I simply decided that I could speak French, because I just could not spend any more time in French classes. I went ahead and took courses on French literature, some of them even taught in French.
I read French much better than I speak.
I unfortunately don't speak French, but my wife is now fluent in English, which really reflects rather badly on me.
Mum and Dad sent us to a bilingual school, so we had half the lessons in English and half in French. But I remember being hugely lost.
We spoke French at home and I didn't know any English until I went to school. My mother was French and met my father when he visited France as a student on a teaching placement.
I learned my French through school. I was lucky in that the tutor on 'The Wonder Years' set spoke fluent French.
I never had to learn English, French and German because I was brought up as all three languages. I had a private French teacher before I even went to school. That helped a lot.
As for the French language, it's probably one of the most beautiful in the world. I speak a little bit and I can follow conversations, but I think it will take time to improve myself.
I don't know French at all. I took some lessons when I was younger but all I know are the numbers. I've been told basically everyone in Monaco speaks English because of it being a huge vacation spot so I'm excited about that. I might not need to learn French after all.
I speak French fluently, so that really helped.
