Merde = Grammaire Francaise!

It’s official; I’m a grammar ‘tard. Yup, I have issues with the structure of language, especially a foreign language. In English it’s punctuation (you know : ; , etc…) that proves difficult or if you asked me about a dangling participle…I’d be screwed. Last night was class number 3 in French. I was a bit behind on all the homework, plus the in class work we didn’t get done last week, that the last 30 minutes of class were my own personal hell. Past tense verbs that need avoir vs. etre add or agreement of objects and conjugations. I’m in this class to help me finally absorb all the French grammar info I can’t seem to keep in my head. It’s annoying to always sound like a retarded French four year old when I speak the language. My pronunciation is great; it’s just the damn grammar! I’ve been doing flash cards at work, on the Metro…hell I’d do them when driving, but that seems dangerous. There is still hope in me, I have 7 more classes to attend and in that time something has got to be absorbed into my head and stay there. I will not be a cheese eating surrender monkey, I will soldier on! Merde!
