Another great video from 1jour1actu.com, this time comparing life in France with life in French-speaking Senegal in Africa, for kids in CM2 (Cours moyen niveau 2 - equivalent to years 5&6 in UK ie. 10/11 years old). It shows there aren’t so many differences as you may think!

Draco talks french when he’s upset and well, Harry’s only a man after all.

They've been married for five years. This happens all the time.

Basically what Draco is saying is :

"Shit, I forgot to bring that fucking report again. I can be so stupid sometimes. Mother always said : "One day you will forget your head Draco and the day that I am not here anymore no one will be here to help you-" before getting cut off by a lovesick Harry.

fully supportive of cass learning sign language and the fanon that she uses it more than spoken language but also. so many of you act as if its a lesser version of communication and she'll automatically be a pro/not struggle with it. its still a complex language that has structure, grammar, vocabulary and syntax. theres so many different factors for it, even within just one region - different signing styles, dialects, slang, as well as actual variations (asl, pse, see)

just because you rely on verbal communication doesnt mean nonverbal or alternative versions of communication is a lesser version than your normal

sign language, writing, variant types of aac devices and resources. its all methods of communication. it all deserves to be treated with the respect and regard that vocal languages are treated with

Reg: it's over.

James: what?? don't you love me anymore?

Reg, knowing he has to get the mark and on the verge of tears: no. I don't.

James: you're lying, you have to be lying

Reg: bien sur que je le suis. Mais ça n'a plus d'importance (of course I am. But that doesnt matter anymore)

Reg, already walking away: goodbye, James. Je t'aime, toujours (I love you, always)
