Les outils de Survie...
(Tools of Survival...)
I hope I will use:
Il fait beau!
- It's nice! (weather)
Je voudrais un morceau de gâteau
- I would like another piece of that delicious pastry
Je regarde seulement. Est-ce que je peux l'essayer?
- I'm not just looking. Can I try it on?
Je le prends!
- I'll take it!
I hope I will not use:
Est-ce que j'ai raté le dernier autobus?
- Have I missed the last bus?
Il y avait un appareil-photo dedans!
- There was a camera inside!
Est-ce qu'il y a un commissariat de police près d'ici?
- Is there a police station near here?
Ce n'était pas de ma faute! Ce n'était pas de ma faute !
- It wasn't my fault! It wasn't my fault!

Hi Gabby:
You are on camera at Chennai Central's weekend post (sorry to use a canned comment for all the bloggers for informing about that post since I don't have time to write individually to each). That post itself was many hours in the making :-)

@ the post titled "Shaddi..."
tis sad... esp. for the person who is trying to do some business out there cuz of these fake misinformers...
i myself being a guy from the IT industry discourage those who are close to rely on shaadi.com (even when i know its hurting the industry which is 'my' bread and butter too)
