So you\u2019ve heard about our January challenge. You haven\u2019t?! Quick, you still have time, have a look here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"Paris\"<\/a>So I thought I\u2019d give you my reasons for learning French, you know, in case you need some inspiration. The main reason is because I\u2019ll be going to Paris for New Year (woop woop) and I am basically getting into \u2018French mode\u2019 by listening to French songs, eating croissants, and I even bought a chic beret.<\/p>\n

As a kid, teenager and young adult I have been learning German and English, and although I think they are both brilliant languages, I have always felt that I want to have that nice, delicate French accent and sing along with Edith Piaf while putting on my winged eyeliner.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m expecting it to be quite similar to my native language, Romanian for numerous reasons among which are the facts that they are both romance languages and that for quite a long period of history, Romania looked up to the French politics, lifestyle and architecture so many words come from French language \u2013 really excited about it!<\/p>\n

Come play with us, it\u2019ll be fun! Choose a language and let us know!<\/p>\n

Ioana<\/p>\n
