If only you knew how to speak French, or Russian, or any other language out there!

In this thread, we can teach each other different languages! I will gladly teach everybody French and other languages.

NOTE: This thread is NOT for discussing. If you wish to discuss in a language of your choice, please start a new thread. This topic is to teach other languages!

I hope everyone has fun :)

If only I could start.


Okay, everyone! Here is the first lesson.


In French, "If Only" is "Si Seulement."

"Si" means IF in French. It also means "Yes" in Spanish.

If only you knew.

"Je sais" means "I know" in French.

Likewise, "Je ne sais pas" means "I don't know".

Eloradenin (animalsaremyeverything) | 392 comments If only I knew how to say, French is confusing in French.

If only that is why I created this thread, to teach you!

"Comprendez-vous?" Means, "Do you understand?"


I am a LoZ & anime Lover!! (CityofEmber) | 92 comments If only this is how U say "French is confusing in French." "Le francais est source de confusion en francais"


message 8: by [deleted user] (new)

If only I could say that that is very close!

You can also say, "Francais me perplexe." That means "French confuses me."

Bird is "le oiseaux".
Horse is "le cheval".
And a crocodile is.. "le crocodile"!

If only I could say you're half way right with the Spanish. 'Sí' with an accent mark is 'yes' in Spanish. 'Si' without one is also 'if'. So, to say 'if only' en español you would say 'si sólo'.

:D My Spanish class finally has some use.
If only I could say I would love to learn French if I could actually pronounce what I'm saying correctly.
