| Ack, sorry for the late reply. Of course you can join, Peanut, if you're still there. What languages are you interested in? |

| Late reply. Oof. Um, well, I know a few words... yeah, just a few, and French words actually look pretty normal, except for the weird symbols. It certainly looks better than Chinese or Japenese! |

| If you think Chinese is fun, look up the Georgian or Thai alphabet. I think Thai has the distinction of being the hardest written language in the world, but I could be wrong. |

| HARDEST WRITTEN LANGUAGE!!! I will NEVER learn it! |

| Well, I suppose you could figure out how to speak it and not write it, but there doesn't seem to be much point to that. |

| Yeah... hmmm, I was thinking about why I wanted to learn French, and I came up with a question... have you ever eaten a macaron? |

| Macaron. . .they're those weird little moon pie-looking things, aren't they? That come in different colors? I can't say I've ever had one. They aren't terribly plentiful in the South. Have you? |

| Nope, although I really want to try them! They have potential to be really crispy and gross or mushy and wet, but I'd still like to try them. The food is the ONLY reason I want to go to France. Or Paris. Or whatever. |

The only real experience I've had with a macaron is some TV show called How It's Made or something like that, which explores the construction of everything from Basque berets to nuclear reactors. One episode they showed how macarons were made and I was like, "I wanna try one of those. . ." but of course they have no macarons around here so I guess I never will. Alas.
I'd go simply because it's on the way to Germany, the land of delicious bratwurst and potato salad with bacon. The mysterious culinary delights of France are outweighed by the fabled snobbishness of its people, at least for me. I might go to Paris, but under duress. |
