Parlez-Vous Francais? Mais Oui







I studied French all through high school but I'm sad to say I have deserted the most beautiful language in the world in recent years. Learning a language is challenging, difficult, irritating and incredibly rewarding all at the same time. Despite the tedium involved in learning a whole bunch of grammatical rules only to find that there are about one hundred exceptions to the rule, there are a great many benefits to speaking a foreign language, especially when it's rather...sexy. Here is my list of motivation to speak French fluently:

1. It sounds truly, deeply sensual. What comes out of your mouth reflects on your person. This means, you speak french= you become more attractive. 
2. You can read Paris Vogue.
3. You can appreciate French cinema without wasting your time on reading subtitles so you can focus more on the emotion displayed on the actors' faces. Very important.
4. You can travel to France/live there and communicate with its people freely. This means you can conduct exotic relationships with French men.
5. You can read Camus in his original language. 
6. You'll feel more authentic wearing A.P.C and carrying a Chanel bag.
7. It will open your mind and challenge it, just like learning any language does. 
8. It looks great on your CV.
9. It's a great way to meet and make new friends
10. You'll be able to pronounce French cheeses properly.
