  1. In terms of Internet terminology 'to link to' is 'linker' in French. A hyperlink is 'lien'.

    It's quite a recent programme so the means in which you acquire will have to be... covert. Such as tv-links.eu. But it's not on there, so if you really wanted to watch it, you'd have to try quite hard to find it.

    This is the episode's website on TV5Monde. If you wanted to find it maybe it'll help?
  2. Tu doit me linkes à cette émission de télé. Immédiatement.

    I don't know if the French use 'link' as we do in English. Sigh, learning is hard.

    I don't know why I thought you were going to Algeria... sorry, haha.
  3. Kikou!

    Je vais en Tunisie. Je ne vais pas à l'Algérie. L'Algérie est à proximité de la Tunisie.

    Tunisiens parlent arabe et en français. L'anglais est également une troisième langue.

    Certains se considèrent comme européenne, tellement français est apparemment très populaire.

    ...C'était une émission de télévision très effrayant.

    ---

    Yesterday I watched a Quebecan television programme as a form of preperation, this was at midday. Dear God, the French love to use gratituous English. Occasionaly one of the main characters would randomly speak a phrase in English in a perfect American accent, a list of all of his English utterances:

    "Take care bro."

    "SW Clothing."

    "Facebook."

    "Lady Gaga"

    "No ****ing way."

    "You gotta be ****ing kidding me."

    "In French, ****er."

    "****!"

    Everytime he swore in English, there were French subtitles using non swear words. They didn't censor the English. They then showed a lady's bare breasts (nipples et al.), and a small girl wetting herself all over the floor. At midday.

    I looked on the official website, it said 'Peut ne pas convenir aux enfants de moins de 10 ans.'

    Edit: Oh look, I've never been censored on this forum before.
  4. Pratiques-tu votre français pour l'Algerie? Parlent-ils beaucoup de français là, ou doit-tu apprendre l'Arabe?

    Si tu pratiques français, regarder cet. J'aime beaucoup ces enfants... ils téléphone toute l'armée de l'air du Canada à sauvent un ananas. Un ananas parle, mais un ananas.
  5. I think I read a few of them, I don't actually recall reading any of the English history ones, except maybe the Victorians one. I may have read 'Bloody Scotland' and 'Slimy Stuarts', but I can't honestly remember.

    I remember reading a 'Murderous Maths' book, and then the author visited my primary school. I also own 'Crashing Computers', which is hilariously outdated and talks about Y2K in the future tense.

    The television series is one of the greatest things to happen to British comedy in years.
  6. Haha. Takes me back. I still know more about this than NZ history. That's kinda bad. Did you read the books?


  7. Horrible Histories - <3
  8. Oh Orangemen are the worst. They have their stupid marches several times a year, banging their stupid drums, singing their stupid songs about King Billy. Trying to burst a drum whenever they pass a Catholic church.

    Catholics don't seem to have a good time in Scotland :S, Highland Clearances getting rid of most of the native Scottish Catholics, the Celtic vs Rangers conflict that continues until today. Strangely, most people in my classes now know that I'm a Catholic and are surprisingly okay with it, and seem to talk theologically very often, a far cry from what my old English teacher had to deal with going to university in Glasgow.

    Rangers F.C. is in administration now, it sort of feels justified after all of their sectarian fans singing about the potato famine and about fenian scum and all that jazz. Too big to fail though.
  9. But it's fun to be oppressed! I can feel all sectarian when I hear about Orangemen. (Btw: Irish potato famine = reason my ancestors emigrated. At least my Irish catholic ones. My Scot Protestant ancestors came for gold.)
  10. Meh, I guess I sort of am. George I was picked all those years ago just because he was a protestant, with 50 catholics in front of him in line to the throne.

    If we're going to have a monarch, they may as well follow the same religion as me.
  11. You're a Jacobite?
  12. This man should be our current king.

    Signed,
    Bonnie Prince Charlie
  13. I'm honestly fine with the question and support the inclusion of the 'devo max' option as well, since after the skewing of previous referendums we need to have some sort of contingency - if the independence vote wasn't successful then the Conservative Party would dismiss it as Scots being happy with the current situation and we would not get another opportunity to change things for years.

    Yes, Burns was quite the man-whore . My maternal grandfather is a Burns to, so maybe we're distant cousins!

    On the subject of Burns, I had a rather dissapointing Burns day, no haggis nor IRN BRU.
  14. I've been reading so much about the Scottish independence referendum. What do you think of the question as proposed?

    At dinner tonight my dad explained how I'm a descendant of Robert Burns. Apparently he was a womaniser and had illegitimate children, so it's not special, but my gran's cousin did the research and apparently it's true. I feel super Scottish.
  15. Indeed. They've been here for awhile.

    Adding confusion to the mix and all that jazz.
