PrintHow to Talk Like a French Chef
Ms. Glaze, an American female chef working in a 3-star restaurant in Paris, gives the hilarious French lesson you never learned in high school: how to talk like a French chef. Just don't practice this lesson outside of the kitchen—it involves a lot of expletives. [via Elise]

Very cute post. The mistakes I made when speaking intermediate French when living in Paris have been completely forgotten by me in the years since.
That's how truly horrible and embarrassing they were. :)

Sweet jesus, I still remember every linguistic stumble, every time I was corrected in a nice manner, every time I was scowled at for being the ignorant American...the horror..
I guess I need more time to heal. ;)

It helps if you can remember to buttonhole people at parties and stuff, pretending to ask about their own experiences in other countries with the true intent of finally pouring out every last painful and awe-inspiringly embarrassing detail at length of your own experience.
That, plus doing lots more embarrassing things as the years go by, heals.
Heh heh.
