I hate lasso tool and my dumb permanent substitute in french.

I FAILED my FIRST EVER exam because of her. With a 44% no less!

That's something I'm often asked! Truth is, it kind of depends on what your first language is, but French has some ever-existing difficulties:

The spoken and written French are different. That's super important to understand: they answer to different rules.

Pronunciation is often a hard sport too: whether it's the "r", the nasal sounds or the intonation - not to mention the spelling/pronuncing differences

We're known to have a lot of tenses

But the thing is, these difficulties get really easier when you understand the underlying principles of french, like

the laziness principle (get that sentence over asap)

or how the tenses go by two (one focusing on the verb itself - simple tenses, and one focusing on the result of the verb - composed tenses)

or how for conjugation, "nous" and "vous" are always the ones deviating from the others

More Rick and Morty sketches in French today lol, they’re meta but this time in French, if you wanna translate good luck it’s probably bad

Also don’t pay attention to the top of the page, that was the real French assignment

Please also enjoy some drunk Rick, he’s really hammered this time.

I F*CKING LOVE IT when he goes into the rambles to reference the first season

As I think I’ve mentioned, I recently dropped Duolingo after over a year

Ik I was basically taking one little lesson a day, it really didn’t feel worth it

…but I still want to learn French :,)
