I like to speak French. I am in French Immersion and mostly outside of school when I speak French noone understands me. Au Revoir.

some of my favourite foreign phrases are anagrams (they read he same backwards and forwards) from Argentine writer Cortazar and Guatemalan writer Monterroso:

Salta Lenin el atlas
Amigo, no gima
Atale, demoniaco Cain, o me delata
Adela, Dioniso, no tal Platon, o si no, id a Leda
Si no da amor alas, sal a Roma, Adonis

I like the phrase "Vad heter du?", which is the name of one of Caramell's songs. I don't know what it means, but it sounds neat. It's Swedish, by the way.

It means "What's your name?" :wink:
