This week I had so much French homework that I think nothing I learned has stuck.  Do you ever experience that sort of information overload?  Sigh.

As much as I do not want to, I think I am going to have to continue my French lessons over Christmas.  My brain seems to have Teflon to French, but surely there have to be some scratches in the Teflon that the French can stick to!

Whenever I come across words in my lesson book that I don’ t know, I look them up and write in the English word.  Here are some of the words I’ve written in since starting my lessons.  I’ve included both genders where necessary.

le voisin – male neighbor,  la voisine – female neighbor
le menteur – male liar, la menteuse – female liar
mignon (m) mignonne (f) – cute
le chanteur – male singer, la chanteuse – female singer
gentil (m) gentille (f) – nice
prêt - ready
le rappel – reminder
le couteau – knife
parfois – sometimes
la facture – bill/ invoice
la veste – jacket
ordonné (m) 0rdonnée (f) – tidy
désordonné (m) désordonnée (f) – untidy
