  • Bonjour, je m'appelle Virginie, je suis fançaise. J'ai plusieurs correspondants francophiles et je pense qu'un site de ce type pourrait les aider énormément.
Ceci dit, j'ai été surprise de voir que ce qui devrait être la leçon 1 n'est pour l'instant qu'une présentation en français/anglais.
Je propose donc d'ajouter une page de présentations, d'y déplacer le contenu de cette page et de mettre ici une réelle leçon de français, qu'en dites-vous?
Hi , I'm Virginie. I am french. I know many persons who learn french, and I think this site may help them a lot!
But I am surprised to see that there is actually no lesson 1... would you mind if this list would be redirected to a presentation page and a real first lesson was posted here? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sariputra (talkcontribs) 13:57, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

  • Yo, what's up? My name's Samuel. I have learned some French, but it is sort of random. I would like to become extremely fluent. Here are some examples of my fluency: Je suis etudiant. Ou se trouve le lit? Parlez-vous francais? Parlez-vous anglais? Ou se trouvent les cartes de credit? Je suis un garcon. Je vais tres bien, merci. Enchante de faire votre connaissance. Comment allez-vous? Ca va? And that's pretty much it, all from memory. Forgive me for the lack of accent marks, I do not know how to do it on the keyboard. I know a lot more vocabulary, but I decided to just put phrases, like: Je voudrais le petit dejeuner. Je voudrais le sandwich au jambon. I would very much like to become utterly fluent. Au revoir. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.68.208.221 (talkcontribs) 03:16, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

  • Bon après midi, je m'appelle est Chuck. Je comprends et parle un peu français et je voudrais mieux parler et comprender. Je suis âgé Cinquante-sept ans. Mon dos me fait mal quand s'asseoir, mais je vais essayer de trouver un moyen d'apprendre le français. J'ai besoin de quelque chose qui me motive. J'apprécie toute l'aide. Je vous remercie pour vos efforts. Désole sur l'utilisation de Google Translator. Au moins je n'ai pas copier et coller. Je veux être capable de lire Flaubert. En fait, j'ai un dictionnaire français belle - Les Mansions plus courtes, ont acheté pour six dollars en Juillet vingt ans, 1986. Et j'ai téléchargé plusieurs livres de Flaubert à partir Librivox et Gutenberg gratuitement. Madame Bovary, et plusieurs autres. J'ai entendu Monsieur Flaubert est tout à fait un écrivain. Espérons que ce n'est pas quelqu'un trop effrayant que moi de tenter de lire son écriture. J'ai essayé d'apprendre le français en éncoutant les nouvelles, mais en général je essayer de rester à l'écart de la nouvelles - trop déprimant. Je pourrais continuer avec le sport, mais je n'aime vraiment ps le football bien. J'ai un dictionaire anglais merveilleuse - Webster nouveau dictionnaire international. Si quelqu'un peut suggérer un dictionnaire français comparables (on l'espère pour pas trop cher), je voudrais bien l'apprécier. Je suis désolé de qui est si longue. Espérons que Google Translator n'a pas tué française trop mal. J'ai un couple français livres d'étude de langue sur le Kindle. J'espère qu'ils vont m'aider. Je fais besoin d'aide (évidemment).
