I just had a conversation in french for the first time in three months.

Oy.

I am so, so, so, SO rusty.

ah! je comprend, tu voit mon frere, Alain, qui conduit, et tu crois que c'est moi.

that's the only thing i will ever remember from french, and it doesn't even make sense.


But I plan on using it anyway.

Hey, just think, at least you can speak English well. Meself and others struggle with just the one language. -P-

Oh, absolutely. I have a friend who also went aphasic when she had her stroke (we are stroke and aphasia buddies!), but at least I had a second language to fall back on. Her stroke hit her language centres and she still struggles with english, eight years later.

It's just that the bad french pricks at my ego... I identify myself as franco-ontarian, but I can't very well do that when I can barely speak.
