Do you speak english ?

Le cours d'anglais porte exclusivement sur l'anglais conversationnel et  la compréhension de la langue parlée

Il s'agit surtout de ne pas être perdu quand un charmant gentlemen ou une dame américaine vous demande comment faire pour trouver les toilettes !!

Si vous pouvez répondre et que votre interlocuteur se dirige bien vers le petit coin et non au restaurant du coin, c'est tout bon:

Attention, "rest room" et restaurant , ça sonne à peu près pareil avec un accent français, Ah! Ah! Ah!

  

Let’s start                      C'est parti !

Connaissez-vous cette chanson des Beattles ?

                   Yesterday

         Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away

         Now it looks as if they're here to stay

         Oh I believe in yesterday

         Why she had to go, I don't know

         She wouldn't say

         Something wrong, now I long

         For yesterday, yesterday…

         Love was such an easy game to play

         Now I need a place to hide away

         Oh I believe in yesterday

         Suddenly, I'm not half the man I used to be

         There's a shadow hanging over me

         Oh yesterday came suddenly

Pouvez-vous rire à ces blagues anglaises ?

Little Johnny

A new teacher was trying to make use of her psychology courses. She started her class by saying, "Everyone who thinks they're stupid, stand up!" After a few seconds, Little Johnny stood up. The teacher said, "Do you think you're stupid, Little Johnny?" "No, ma'am, but I hate to see you standing there all by yourself!"

Little Johnny attended a horse auction with his father. He watched as his father moved from horse to horse, running his hands up and down the horse's legs and rump, and chest. After a few minutes, Johnny asked, "Dad, why are you doing that?" His father replied, "Because when I'm buying horses, I have to make sure that they are healthy and in good shape before I buy. Johnny, looking worried, said, "Dad, I think the UPS guy wants to buy Mom."

Si vous avez tout compris, BRAVO. S'il reste des coins obscurs, bienvenue au cours.

Si vous pouvez lire tout ce texte à haute voix sans accent, c'est encore mieux.
