Wich book of Stephen Shore will you recommend ?


Recommended Posts

Nico, French is a beautiful language and so is English. I like English more because it allows and accepts change rather more freely. Had I been the pedant, I'd be just a little embarrassed!

 

Personally, I like 'Uncommon places' by Shore rather a lot.

<p>Je, personnellement, parle française tres mauvais, als Sie sehen kann.<br>

Like French, English spelling got set at a time when the language was really (sometimes) spelt the way it sounded. Although French, being the language of the French, is at least more systematic in its peculiarities.;)<br>

In short, help the language along with its much needed spelling reform, just as I am assisting the Germans with the elimination of gender distinctions. :)</p>

<p>In short, thank people who correct you for the lesson and ignore their grumpiness, if you can. In France I was usually corrected and appreciated it too. It's worse in places like big-city Mexico where the native speakers accept whatever so long as they can get the gist of it.</p>
