or "je ne sais pas" is pronounced "shaypa" ...

C'est marrant parce qu'en tant que français, c'est l'inverse pour moi (j'arrive à écrire et lire correctement en anglais, mais j'ai vraiment du mal à l'oral, tout va trop vite)

rústico inocente: ¿así es como agradeces a la gente que se toma tus preguntas en serio? allá tu, y suerte con tu descabellado plan-- la vas a necesitar. pero no nos hagas perder el tiempo otra vez con preguntas ridículas.

casi se me olvida... ¿qué carajo son los "federalis", oh asombroso políglota?

yeah - we learnt that in french class - the teacher was showing us how to speak like french teenagers (grunt).
je ne sais pas = "shaypa" is just like i do not know = "dunno"

I speak a teeny, tiny bit of French.
The bastards have been trying to teach me since kindergarten but it didn't really work out. I failed grade 9 French two times and only passed the 3rd time because I did it in credit recovery and got my French immersion friend to do most of it haha.
I want to learn France French, not Quebec French.
