Korossol into the Ring 28
I don't think I'll ever learn Arabic. I wish I would because it has a beautiful script. Also, I heard that arabian poetry is wonderful. But it seems so terribly complicated! And I'm not sure I can work with a language tant isn't roman. The fluidity of the script fascinate me. It scare me also. What I'm trying to say is that, with roman languages, I can alway guess, at lest a little, what it is about. Our words have commen roots. With Arabic, Greek, Russian and many asian languages, I can recognize anything. I used to want to learn Japanese - as most of my generation - but... kanji! katakana! I don't understand it at all!
I have to say that foreign language teaching is - as much as I could see - very bad in France. We quit high school with years of English, Spanish, German and Latin behind us. Most of us can't speak any of these languages or understand them. Saying "Oh, nowadays, you have to know English to work" is not helping anyone learning it. I don't understand why the Ministry of National ducation doesn't change things. because it's clear htht the system isn't working. We're wasting time - years off our lives - and money on something that never worked.
That is actually why so many people use confinment for learning a foreign language; it's because school failed to teach them.
It's also why distant education is so appreciated. Sometimes, their teachers are really good.

And I'm not sure I can work with a language tant isn't romannon-romance language.
In English, we call "Latin-origin languages" romance languages.
The fluidity of the script fascinates me.
It scares me also.
What I'm trying to say is that, with romance languages, I can always guess, at least a little, what it iss being talked about.
Our words have commen roots.
With Arabic, Greek, Russian and many aAsian languages, I can't recognize anything.
I used to want to learn Japanese - aslike most of my generation does - but... kanji!
kKatakana!
I don't understand it at all!
I have to say that foreign language teaching is - as muchfar as I could seean tell - very bad in France.
We quitleave high school with years of English, Spanish, German and Latin behind us.
quitter is a false cognate (un faux ami !) - it doesn't usually mean "quit" in English.
quitter = to leave, to depart

bBecause it's clear hthat the system isn't working.
We're wasting time - years off our lives - and money on something that has never worked.
That is actually why so many people use confinmentare using quarantine for learning a foreign language; it's because school failed to teach them.
In English, confinement = détention (en cellule), se faire séquestrer (dans le cadre d'un acte judiciaire, criminel), etc.
Quarantine is the word for "isolation due to (the danger of) an illness".
It's also why distantremote education is so appreciated.
Sometimes, their teachers are really good.
