Ma petite soeur sont retournee! (Elle sont retournee et *je* droit apris francais?)
Written by on in Vindaloo.

Pushy lil' sisters... if they weren't so cute they'd be an endangered species...

    The "sont" is the "to be" (être) verb in the first person plural (as in "we are")<br />

    One small thing to know, in french we do add an extra space between the last word of a sentence and a mark such as "! ? :" but not between the word and ". , ;".<br />
    <br />
    It's a small thing but it makes you look good and in the know ;)<br />
