Oui, moi'ssi j'aime utiliser le déjeuner, dîner, souper. C'est plus simple!

J'adorerais parler le Wallon, mais je connais seulement un couplet de chanson :( J'aurais aimer en apprendre plus à l'école.

Je sais me lire sur les panneaux en général, ça ressemble beaucoup à un accent de ma région. Il y a des pancartes avec des petits proverbes dans ma ville, j'adore les lire.

Ma maman a quelques expressions amusantes en wallons, par exemple "dji vou, dji n'pou" pour dire qu'on veut faire quelque chose mais qu'on en est pas capable. Mon papa est Bruxellois et a des expressions totalement différentes, ce qui fait que pon frère et moi utilisons un mélange bizarre d'accents et de patois.

J'aime bien le français, mais je ne le parle pas comme les Français évidemment. Je trouve toujours que ça a plus de sens de parler de déjeuner, dîner et souper que de petit-déjeuner, déjeuner et dîner. Duolingo utilise le français de France cependant, donc je fais sans arrêt des erreurs avec les noms des repas quand j'apprends d'autres langues.

We have these differences between Flemish and Dutch too. It's not always easy. I wish they were taught more at schools too.

But Wallon will always be superior because of septante et nonante 🙌

Anyway, I like that expression!

omg yes i'm going to say 'good bettering' from now on

Fucking monstrous that english doesn't have a word for "gute besserung". Where is your "bon rétablissement", your "god bedring"??! i'm sorry but "get well soon" sounds like a threat i am not saying that to my tumblr mutuals whom i love

i speak French and English fluently, and rn I'm learning 2 other languages but here's the issue... 1 of them is a dead language and one of them I've just barely learned the alphabet.

feel free to elaborate in the tags, i'm really curious! also please reblog for larger sample size
