But thanks for the quote **jakelope**. Even if I don’t know what it means. But it’s real nice. I’m sure it’s just as nice as an authentic **featherlou** Frenchified phrase. Not that I’m complaining. Actually I am complaining, but just a little. And I don’y mean anything by it, I just complain alot. But, thanks anyway. -Rue. ---

**MoodIndigo** , what I said about accuracy was meant to poke fun at myself for being a big cheater, not to discourage other people. I think I’ll start another thread; “Get your French phrase fixed by MoodIndigo” 🙂 (Can you help Superdude with his pronunciation, by the way? Being a big cheater, I don’t know much about pronouncing this stuff.) ---
