Okay I'm in a French classes for the next four years of my life and I rly like the language. I'm gonna talk about what I like or dislike about it.I have some questions tho!
1. How long have you been speaking it, how old were you?
2. Why did you learn?
3. Do you think it will be useful ever in your lifetime?

And here are my answers!
1. J'ai parle fran?ais en ao?t 2016, j'avais 14 ans.
2. Les cour de fran?ais ou espanol sont requis.
3. Je pense le fran?ais est utile quand je voyager.

I like how there are something I can express in french but not English. I dislike conjugations.
 
i don't speak french, but i wish i did! it's such a pretty language. i've tried learning before but i got super overwhelmed, and quit. i'll probably try to learn again at some point but for right now i'm learning german! :p
 
I don't speak French but I can if you like.

Seriously, though, no. I'd like to be able to, though. I love a lot of French bands.

1.) J'ai parle fran?ais en decembre 2013. J'avais 10-11 ans.
2.) J'ai commence a apprendre le francais parce qu'il est necessaire d'apprendre au Canada, car c'est une langue secondaire.
3.) Oui, comme la plupart des universites exigent que vous connaissiez une deuxieme langue.

Might have screwed up since I stink
 
I know hardly any French, I've done a bit on Rosetta Stone and a bit on Duo Lingo but I still don't know very much. If I buckled down and got serious I could probably do pretty well at it, I can see how much easier it is than English. The only thing I have problems with are the masculine and feminine things. Like I can't wrap my head around why an inanimate thing should be intrinsically feminine or masculine. XD
 
1. I started learning French when I was 9 years old.

2. I started learning French because it is part of the Canadian curriculum. I studied it until I graduated from high school.

3. Recently, French has been quite useful for me. I am a teacher, and one of my students moved here from Congo, so he only speaks French. Although he has started to learn a little English since moving here, it's still easier for me to communicate with him in French.
 
1. How long have you been speaking it, how old were you?
J'ai parle depuis j'ai ete 9
2. Why did you learn?
Ecole!! lol
3. Do you think it will be useful ever in your lifetime?
Oui! Je veux bouger a Montreal quand je suis plus age.

Okay my french skills are rusty because I haven't taken french since I was in Grade 9 and I'm in 11 now. (Except for the first week of school this year when I was in AP French but then I dropped out)
I really do like french I want to take classes in it when I'm in university, because I really love language! Currently I'm studying German though!

(also excuse the lack of accents, half of it is because i don't remember all of them and the other half is my laptop is complicated when doing that)

I've been learning it at school for the last 4/5 years but I'm pretty bad. I can read it better than I can speak it at least!
 
I can understand french, but i think i cannot speak it (atleast correctly)
 
1. Je parlais le francais depuis 2007
2. J'ai commence d'apprendre cette langue parce que c'est obligatoire au Canada
3. Oui, le francais serait utile dans ma vie parce que je veux devenir un professeur de francais.

I wouldnt mind learning it but I studied German instead. it can be useful if you ever go to French Canada or Haiti i suppose, or if you want to know what the announcers at the Olympics are saying. all i mostly know how to say is Je nes parl pas Francais non; which I apparently say with a perfect accent to such an extent that the French people I meet don't believe what I am telling them...

I think I structured those sentences right. I've been taking french at school for 3 years now.... little too lazy to check what I wrote on google translate ;)
 
I would've loved to take it in secondary school - but I took Spanish instead T_T worst mistake of my life. I did do a bit in primary school but that was like 6-7 YEARS ago now oh how time flies ;-;. I know how to count to like 3 still. It's such a nice language (and kinda sexy too lol) and I am considering taking it up again in the future, alongside my Swedish learning.
