Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Hivemind question:
Would a French speaking, Cajun call his wife "Cher" or "Cherie?"
Gambit always said "Cher."
And Dennis Quaid's character in the Big Easy also used it.
But "cara mia" is still my favorite.
Timelies all!
Never got a collect call from jail. (I have nothing else to add)
I think it could be either. But if you didn't use "chérie", I think you would probably say "ma chère". But who knows with those crazy Cajuns.
In any case, if you are writing it you need to use "chère" ("cher" is masculine). They are pronounced the same.
Thanks, Megan! I remembered the extra e for the feminine.
Thanks, guys!
Amy, I love Gomez Addams and his declarations to Morticia.
I remembered the extra e for the feminine.
And the accent. Don't forget that.
Mom got a new job at her old school! (They'd eliminated funding for her old position in an assy move eerily similar to the what happened to Kat.) This is awesome because a) she's still at the neighborhood school and b) she doesn't have to wait until the end of the month to find out what positions in the district are open (this has its own funding) and c) this means that she'll sleep at night! She'd been having stress insomnia.
Today was INSANE.
