I have mental issues that severely impact memory. I am proud of my conversational level of French given all circumstances in my life. I can say and read most of it, but have a thick accent and trouble with southern accents in France. Northern french is easier for me to hear. There are so many aspects to language. I suggest Paul Taylor on youtube for a little insight.

Can you help me with my car problem too? You did say next

Have you ever learned French? The words bleed together and it is worse in the south. Pouvez-vous repeter is not something they like to hear every 2 seconds. Usually they switch to english because speaking with an accent is offensive. I can read it all day. Not to mention my husband at that time refused to speak in his native tongue with me. And where we worked they were all research scientists who had to learn multiple languages and came from around the world. I was not allowed to go anywhere without him and he confiscated my phone and destroyed it multiple times or said it was stolen. 🤷‍♀️

I was exposed? Lol

I can speak as much as a french 2 year old. Pas beaucoup. A2 certified.

Yes I just went looking for the papers. You have no idea the hoops I had to jump through to get them. Cannot find them. I found the bloodwork. It is just for novelty which is why I am asking here. If I really want to know that bad I can try to contact the social worker where I stayed.

This. And plus, privacy. Would you trust someone phoning you up from another country not speaking the language well enough asking for a medical record with identification they don’t use? Maybe OFII or the social worker who was very close with me could have helped, but the hoops would be not worth the trouble just so I can talk about that one crazy time I was on 500mg of Tercian a night.

Worth looking into, thanks. Or maybe some forums come to think of it

Would be easier if in the two years I lived there I would’ve learned enough French.

It was tercian! Just popped into my head
