Je voudrais examiner mes qualifications anglais-français par demandant à nos amis européens si ceci semble n'importe quel raisonnable.

I'm not European but, if I remember some of my high school French...
I think you're asking if your English to French translations are reasonable. If so... works for moi!

Por que tu piense que los europos solemente hablan francais y anglais? Tal vas les candiennes pueden ayudarle. Muchos de ellos hablan francais.

Por moi, comme un Gringo, je pense que vous n'avez pas un probleme avec les chose simples, mais les chose tres difficle ... mais vous sais ce, n'est pas?

I know, that when I've been in France and the french speaking parts of canada and switzerland, people are really happy when they hear me trying to speak their langauge. So if it's a fear issue don't worry, you'll be understood. As you can see my french and spanish son muy feo, but when I speak 'em, people smile.

That was my original flegme joke but nobody seemed to get it.
I'm moving to the Tak board - they don't have any of this interesting stuff over there. They just talk about wood. I hear Ron Jeremy joined by accident.

I thought it was dutch, but then it looked different so then I though Africaans and then my brain moved on.

Soy muy impresonado, pero porque aprende Flemish? Tiene una mujer en Belgique?

Hey now...first of all, I unfortunately won't be there to be bitten. Secondly, I prefer nibbling - biting gets you time in the penalty box.

Oh, wait, you said weasel. As you were...
