Yup i speak french, more specificaly
Quebec French. We have different accent, terms and expressions than European French, so i am probably not the best person for helping you :unsure:
I am interessed in history in general, particulary the great empires and the great emperors. I dont know much about all the dates and names, but if i see a documentary about this on television or an article on internet i'll watch/read it whenever i can. The Byzantine Empire, Russian Empire and Roman Empire are my favorites subjects. The thing that attract me in an empire ( real or fictional ), its the high level of technology used, the mentality and the age. Byzantine Empire was a 1000 years old empire at his end, French Empire was like 10 years old at his end... I dont really like those kind of ephemeral empires and emperors.
An perfect exemple of civilisation ( fictionnal ) that i love: The Ancients in Stargate. A millions years old civilisation, highest technology, and a pacifist mentality.

That's good, Mumbling !
Just a little detail:
Il habite ‡ Quebec
We could say this if i was living in Quebec City ( our capital ). But i don't, so when talking about the province of Quebec, we must say: Il habite
au Quebec. That's how we make the difference and avoid to be confused.
" ‡ " is used when we talk about cities: Je vais ‡ Paris, je vais ‡ Berlin, je vais ‡ Washington... ( je vais ‡ = I go to )
" au " is used when we talk about country, region or province: Je vais au Japon, je vais au …tat-Unis, je vais au Canada...
But " au " is only used when we talk about country who have "male" name. For those one with "female" name, we say " en ": Je vais en France, je vais en Allemagne, je vais en Chine...
Phew, i am not a teacher, so it's hard to explain that with words, even more in english.
...Well, while playing to the teacher:
Tu ?™tre int?©ress?© par le empereur Napoleon Bonaparte?
Hum, if those strange sign mean; "Tu ’tre intËressÈ", then you talk like Petrie
Tu ’tre intËressÈ = You be interessed.
The correct sentence is: "
Es-tu ( are you ) intËressÈ par
l'Empereur NapolÈon Bonaparte ? "
tre / Be
Je suis - I am
Tu es - You are
Il est - He is
Nous sommes - We are
Vous ’tes - You are ( plurial or for expressed politeness; "Es-tu" is like you talk with a friend or someone you know very well. " tes-vous" is if you talk to a stranger or someone that deserve respect like your teacher or your boss. )
Ils sont - They are
For the
l' instead of
le before Emperor, i can't explain why, i just naturaly know it :/
