It's easy. It is French. LOL

I never could understand French. All I can just about remember are the days of the week, months of the year, and numbers up to about 100.

That's a good start. The rest is easy.

 

[Dwarf]

I think I'll stick with English, if it's all the same to you. I've enough trouble with that!

Back to topic:

Any of the Carry On films, On The Buses (3 of them), The Bridge Over The River Kwai, and, if you like horror and gore, the Saw series (warning: these do contain graphic images).

You only now need to learn retreat, surrender and collaborate then you will have the entire language completely mastered
