Hi passionate, antique lovers.

Greetings to all,
From Montréal,Canada.
It's by need to identify my last acquisition I come to this forum.

I am a french native Québecois. In my fifty.
Apart my needing, I'll certainly surf on your site see what kind of vintage stuffs eat you up.

warms regards,
André

 

Bonjour, Andre!

 

Bonjour! My grandmother was Quebecois. Her maiden name was Lafond. She moved to New Hampshire in the late 1890s. I have not been to visit Quebec in many years. Bienvenue!

 

Hola and bonjour! I have shopped in Quebec!

 

Gila - and I've eaten salmon there!

and also: Bonjour, Andre!

 

Welcome Andre......

No Bagel, or Smoked Meat ???
Peshawww !!!

 

SBSVC-

Komo - nope, just the 2nd best salmon I've ever had in my life - second only to fresh-caught in Alaska!

Dears visitors of Québec,
For sure I know what you're talking about. Every tourist must paid a visit at our historical smoke meat restaurant ''Scwartz" http://schwartzsdeli.com/ca/en/ owns by deceased husband René Angelil.. Komokwa, you well grab our french slang colors.
Maple syrup 70,8 % mondial exportation. Now,when you spend an American $ it worth 1.38 can.
Come paid us a visit, a lot of ''Marché aux puces'' (flea market), diverse quality of Antiquaire.

Welcome to Québec, cradle of French civilization in North America

 

You're completely charmante, Andre.

Zut alors, ou est mon chien/chat, je t'aime, combien, cela vient-il dans d'autres couleurs, je suis une foutue bete, taxi ici, mon smart-phone ne marche pas, vous parlez l'espagnol ou l'anglais, aide de la police!, j'espère que vous n'êtes pas en colère, rien ne va plus...

I have now shown off my complete French vocabulary.

 

Gila, I had ELEVEN years of French in school, and I NEVER could speak a word! I could READ it and WRITE it, but I never could SPEAK it!

My husband is actually worse with languages than I am! He had the LOWEST score ever recorded on a foreign language final exam at Georgetown University - quite a distinction! That particular one was Russian... (He had already tried French and German. He eventually passed the Foreign Service exam with Spanish...)

One time when we were in Paris, a rather haughty waiter asked him (in English) (after he had ordered) "Is monsieur certain that he wants CREAM SAUCE on his TRACTOR?"

Oy vey.

 

Okay, now for my entire vocabulary of Russian.
Nyet, Svetlana, Da.

 

Oh, and... (dear Andre, forgive me for cluttering up your post, but...)
Oy vey?
My entire vocabulary in Yiddish (thanks to a Jewish girlfriend in college).
Entirely phonetically spelled...

Ahem. *clearing throat*

Oy vey ismir
Mishuguna
La chaim
Shabatt
Ikc been funum Mexico
Zayt mir moykuhl
