DS #1804: My French Coach (USA)

[refugio]

to people that dont know french but tried this: does it really teach, if so very well or barely any?

"omelette du fromage"

hello fellow dexters lab watcher.

well, i remember that from when i was younger, anyway.

 

[Kachoo]

this is a really cool thing to learn with, first couple lessons are just days of the week, months, numbers, and colours, then now im learning pronouns, I, you(feminine), you (masculine), he, she,we ,they, hello, good bye, etc. and im only on the fifth lesson. and i think theres either 16 lessons or more because the other tabs are unlocked.

I just saw on GameFAQs that there are 'Level 2: Intermediate' games for both games for Europeans.

Also, where the hell is My German Coach. Stupid gamemakers. Can't even make another game with exact same things besides the vocab.

"omelette du fromage"

hahaha! I came into this thread for the sole purpose of posting that. But you beat me too it!

Hopefully the game is more effective than that tape

For any other people using a G6Lite the game seems to load fine for me but then freezes when i try to record my voice. I got it to work by using Safe mode using 4.9d U-Disk Manager

"omelette du fromage"

^^^

btw will this finally let me understand what Costello says? I swear he doesn't make a lick of sense sometimes

 

[Rayder]

Hmm...I took a year of French approximately 25 years ago. Maybe I should check this out to expand my knowledge of the language. Like...to actually re-learn what I was taught.

I know how to....

Count to 10 in French.

Say:
Une jolie fille. (a pretty girl)

Non parlay francais (no speak French

)

So I could use some help. I mean, it IS the language of love....and I love GBAtemp, so....err....uhh......yeah, no real relation there.

I don't rem how to say 11, 12 or 13 in French, but I do remember saying the number 14 was incredibly fun to say in French for some reason. That roll of the tongue is a skill, to be sure.

People who have heard me speak the few phrases I do know in French say I speak it very well. Hey! I watched Pepe Le Pew on the old Looney Toons cartoons, I know how they sound.

nice to see so many replies to "omlette du fromage"!
god I loved that show.
there was an episode called "blink" or something, where one of his lights went out, and he had to get a new one... but there was no dialogue....
was brilliant.
now I wanna see if that's on youtube.

edit:
not that episode, but did find omlette du fromage. 7 mins.... enjoy.

God I loved Dexter's Lab. "omlette du fromage" is actually the only French I remember, and it's because of that show.

But back on topic... french... coaching... yes.

Not those freaking glasses with a grin on the frontpage... again

 

[kissifroth]

Oh my god! Guys your french is so poor

Trust me it's a real disappointment for french like me that try to learn and speak English in a good way when you're not even able to spell words properly ^^

We say: 'une omelette au fromage'
'une jolie fille' (a cute girl)
'salut grosse pute' (hi! bitch)

Actually, "bitch" is "chienne" in french. "Grosse pute" (fat whore) is intended for formal conversation, such as when you're speaking to an old lady or one of president sarkozy's staff. Don't mislead our american friends!

 

[Gestahl]

Lol, Hitto. Anyway, I got to the lesson 21, but the level of French is still very basic. The bits of grammat they "teach" you in this game is not enough to actually learn the language but could be useful if you're going to France and want to be able to say a couple of phrases ("Ou sont les toilettes", heheh).

Overall, the 'Mon Coach Personnel: j'enrichis mon vocabulaire' is much more useful if you're really into French.

lul @ recent French class

Here you go:

11 - onze
12 - douze
13 - treize
14 - quatorze

interesting with language coaches.
this one is like a present for my gf.

i on the other hand, is waiting for my russian coach

 

[Fieryshadowz]

Interesting, this thread became the sequel to My French Coach

"bitch" is "chienne" in french.

Literally maybe. Used to share a house with two Frenchie Stoodents and all they ever used was "Salope" - along with "baisé ta mère" as a stock comeback to any insult.

But will it tell you what "Cheese-eating surrender monkey" is?

Singe qui mange le fromage et redditions?

Ugly but they would get the general idea.
