I have a tendency to say "cinq" to rhyme with sank, as in the ship sank. This drove my French teacher insane. He spoke French with a Scottish accent which probably accounts for my terrible French. However I also have a idiosyncratic way of speaking any language, even English.

But we knew exactly what you meant, which is the important part. I think canuk is fairly fluent. He can translate and Lloyd and I will make up French verbs. You just add 'er' to the end of the English word, right? He can translate from Maiden's english to english ? LoL Yes er, or i,a,é etc. Its kinda between hispanic and english. Lloyd, hehe and quatre for cat?

I think hal meant that canuk1w1 would translate French<->English, not "Franglaise"<->English (although your interpretation is much more amusing)

...haha, nope 'buyed' was not invented by Maiden, my kids use that word all the time, as well as 'buyded'. 'Purchased' is a safe alternative.

You can also buyed your time. lol In fact, i was sure that every english word with 'ed' was participe past. Like i 'drived', or i 'watched'. So for me, buyed was buy in the past. Sometimes i think in french when i write in english. Its not a good mix

Technically the only way to buy something in the past is to use a time machine.
