You're probably right. Some French words are similar to English ones.

yeah, for about 5 weeks at school.
french is pretty easy to read though, lots of words are very similar.

I studied French at school for 5 years and for the first 4 I had one of the nicest teachers ever. That was probably a part of why I enjoyed it. But she left and we had some batshit old woman for the last year. I had Spanish as an optional after-school class in the last two school years but I think I dropped out.

Half? Really? That's a shocking statistic!
Something I never noticed in my 2 years of learning French.

I blame it entirely on poor teaching.

Have you considered that maybe you're just a bad learner?

Rubbish
My French teacher was actually Italien, which was one of the reasons why we didn't get taught so well. Oh the irony.

To add a little fuel to the fire, she knew six different languages and could speak each fluently.
