Ma petite soeur sont retournee! (Elle sont retournee et *je* droit apris francais?)


Rose has returned from her wanderings. French much improved, considerably better than mine now... trouble is she wants to speak only French at home, so I'm going to have to learn considerably more to get by. I suppose that's a good thing, but I'd actually rather learn Mandarin.

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")

It's a small thing but it makes you look good and in the know ;-)

Have fun
