So I spent a lovely weekend in Tokyo at the lovely apartment of the lovely ladies ontogenesis and
cienna and their lovely but anxiety-filled cat Yuki. I met the equally lovely ai_ling and juin for the first time and a lovely time was had by all. I was able to eat many wonderful foods that are unavailable in my town, such as Pizza Hut and Wendy's and TGIF's.

Qu'est-ce que nous avons fait pendant ce weekend について que je parle? Le samedi etait plein de francais...a l'apartment nous avons fait un kanji quiz en francais for some reason. そのあとで Renoir 展覧会を見に行った. Renoir est un francophone, n'est-ce pas? Apres ca, karaoke et Le Lockup restaurant de Shibuya に行った. 楽しかった. Mais je ne peux pas parler le francais ou le japonais, donc je dois まもなく arreter this farce.

On Sunday we watched ze movie American Gangster. Yo. I managed to not realize that one of the main characters was Russel Crowe until the end credits rolled around. He had a major wig/pimple thing going on. Oh, and the movie was very good.

After that ontogenesis took me on a grand tour of the Go Institute. She should get a job as an official tour guide considering how many times she's had to bring people there. It was tres interessant and tres similaire to the series. After that I hopped on the train to go home and found out that the shinkansen was running an hour late probably due to the massive winds that had been blowing stuff into our eyes all weekend. But the trains all worked out and I got home pretty much on time. Yay!

You are extremely lucky I actually understood that paragraph. Farce indeed! *facepalms* Whatever possessed you to do so?

ETA: Was this perforce the translation? As below:

So what did we do this weekend, you say? Saturday was full of French/France ... at the apartment we did a kanji quiz in French for some reason. After that we went to see the Renoir exhibition. Renoir is a French-speaker, isn't that so? After that, went to the karaoke and The Lockup restaurant in Shibuya. Had fun. But I can't speak French or Japanese, therefore I should immediately stop this farce.

Saturday was just so full of French that I had to! But when I try to speak French nowadays, it always comes out half in Japanese, so yeah.

Yep, you got it! Jeez, how many languages do you know anyway?

[love_archived]

*giggles* I can't speak French anymore. I keep trying to use Japanese phrases.

Oh, trust me, just because I can read your paragraph (which was not difficult when you followed the grammar I'd done in college, plus you cheated by using English and Japanese) does not mean I am a polyglot! ^_^ *hearts*

[flonnebonne]

But you do know at least three languages very well, right? Polyglot.

Well, I can say that I understood about 50% of that paragraph and could make somewhat inaccurate guesses about the rest. Now we'll see if I can do those same kanji quizzes with the English words instead of the French. I might need you to come translate again.

[flonnebonne]

Trust me, any words you didn't understand in that paragraph were not stunning examples of any language, so you weren't missing anything.

By "translate" you mean "make wild guesses", right?

XD! (Renoir, il est francais, n'est-ce pas?)

[flonnebonne]

Ah oui, もちろんね! I always makes the mistake of thinking that francophone=french person, but of course that's not true. *sheepish*
