Hahaha why?

I could keep a basic conversation going :| but only in talking cause people don't notice my grammar mistakes.

There would be a lot of pauses though.

 

 

 

Kat :cheesy:

our school closed early again today.

Hai

This time our money was withdrawn from Vancouver. :|

Silly card copiers.

You should learn French instead.

Once we are in school we hardly ever get to leave early

I think changing over when you only have about 6 months left in high school would be much harder :lol:

I only remember the "I" version of a few verbs like

I live, I love, I am, I have, I walk, etc.

And a few school, house and town related nouns.

 

 

The buses control everything here,

they get on to the schools and they're like OHAI ROADS ARE BAD, WE'RE NOT GOING TO PICK PEOPLE UP AFTER 3PM SO LEAVE THEM OUT NOW.

 

 

Well it seems like that anyways.

I heard it's snowing badly. :|

The Canadian teacher at school can't understand why we freak out about snow so much :lol:

I heard it's snowing badly. :|

See that circled area of very little to no snow,

that's where I am.

 

 

 

 

 

You guys live in wimpy places.

 

I live, I love, I am, I have, I walk, etc.

 

J'HABITE/JE VIS, J'AIME, JE SUIS, J'AI, JE MARCHE

The Canadian teacher at school can't understand why we freak out about snow so much

 

Hehehe. :wacky:

You guys live in wimpy places.

 

 

 

J'HABITE/JE VIS, J'AIME, JE SUIS, J'AI, JE MARCHE

I learnt it as Je promenade.

Hm, I've never really heard anyone use that for walk. :thinking:

You guys live in wimpy places

 

People just think Oh dear look at all this snow, well there is no possible way of getting to school or work so I won't even bother :blank:

Well google translate can recognise it so I don't feel complete stupid.

 

GOOGLE TRANSLATE KNOWS EVERYTHING LOLS.
