French
on: July 01, 2007, 10:15:34 PM
Does anyone here know how to speak both French and English fluently?

I have made a bet with someone that I cannot teach myself basic French over the summer and I am looking for someone I can chat and email with in French so they can point out my mistakes in English.

Thanks,
Hunter

Send a pm to cristalsound, she is fluent in both and i am sure she would help you.

She also eats snails.

Hope this helps.

There are translator sites out there that do a rough job of translating from one language to another.

I am fluent in both. I also have the daily experience of speaking both languages living in Quebec.
