Re: Start French classes tomorrow... wish me luck (I need it).
That you understand those aspects of the situation indicate to me that you really already speak the language but wish to fine tune your command of the language to the level of a native speaker.

Bonne chance!
Basic french isnt so bad.. its when you start getting into super duper past perfect tense. Where before you can finish a sentence you have to guess if the word's fem or masc and if you get it right they blindfold you and spin you around until you get the proper endings correct with the correct accents.
:p
I think you'll do fine, you're already immersed so you'll catch on real quick

Re: Start French classes tomorrow... wish me luck (I need it).
Good Luck! I know exactly what you are going through. I spent 9 years in Okinawa, Japan. I was good with their Japanese dialect and "slang", however, when I would go up to mainland, alot of times it was tough. Tokyo has it's own slang, Osaka has it's own slang, etc... Then, when I started taking college classes on proper Japanese, my Okinawan friends would always say, "What are you saying? Nobody talks like that..." It was frustrating at times...
But I also would laugh at them sometimes when they would "spreak a Engrish"...

Re: Start French classes tomorrow... wish me luck (I need it).
Thanks all, just gathering my books, filling my thermos and trying to decide if I need a lunch. *yeesh*
I think it will be a whole lot of...
Bonjour! Ca-va?
Ca-va bien et toi?
Ca-va.
And then throw in a lot of Mais Oui! For good measure.
And me saying over and over... mon francais est tres mauvias, excusez moi!
