Mathair & Athair beo.

"Cacofonix" is the name of the bard. :)

From the word "cacophony" meaning an appauling and calamatous noise.

Vitalstatistix is VERY fat.

I am trying to recall some of the Roman names.

Je ne sais que mon Francais est bon a assez pour le navigation de la website.

Bwah. Je me ne trouver pas le Romans a toque.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.

I am trying to recall some of the Roman names.

In A&C, you have "Superflous", "Mintjulep" and "Operachorus".

Oh and Obelix's little dog is called "Dogmatix" (in the English version anyway)

No other candidate is asking the hard questions, like "Did geophysicists assassinate Jim Henson?" or "Why is there hydrogen in America's water supply?" --defective yeti

You know, Buffistas often request jobma and healthma, but we hardly ever hear a call for "dogma." I'm not sure if that's because we're heathens or cat owners or both.

Thanks for all the fish.

Asterix and Obelix

All over the place up here. Well, at least in my little circle. Remind me to show you the next time you're here, Trudy.

t /thinking in french

Sorry I couldn't find the stuff I was looking for. The names of the Roman generals are quite funny, but I don't get them in French so I'm guessing no-one else here will either...I could be wrong.

Edit: FayJay, hows your French?

No, Asterix only really works in a language you're fluent in. All my German friends love it, but complained that the English translations were really bad. Actually, the English translations are exceptionally good, but full of puns and word games, so they simply didn't get most of the humour.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Edit: FayJay, hows your French?

Abysmal. Beyond "Le singe est dans l'arbre" I'm pretty much toast.

Mathair & Athair beo.

Ah, vous ETES le President de Berundi.

Mais le souris et SUR le table.

Je suis femme at ne pas une souris.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Yes, that's about my level. (God bless Eddie Izzard and all who sail in him.) I took French to GCSE, so I've got sufficient lousy Franglais to make a reasonable stab at translating things, and I can hazard a guess at other Romance languages when in Italy/Romania/wherever, but in terms of grammar or extensive vocabulary - really no. My wee sister is the proper polyglot of the family.

You've got family in France, then? That's nice.
