Je ne sais pas que vous dites, mais je n'inquiete pas.

My likely-broken attempt at saying "I don't know what you are saying, but I don't really care."

It's funny that I barely remember any French after just two months without French classes...

Me too, and most likely to take now in the 9th grade.
I would talk a bit of Portuguese, but I'm bored.

Go to a translator for a crappy-almostlike translation.

Portuguese? They teach that now? I would think only French and Spanish...

Woot. I'm back after a two day hiatus...

So Strop, do you think it would be appropriate for my character to speak French or English with a French accent?

Nah, I'm sure they offer classes elsewhere... But maybe they just teach it at his school. Who knows? They teach Latin at my school (It's a beautiful language).

Translators suck... I'm better off piecing sentences together from what I gather from dictionaries. >_>

Alright fine, I'll comment on the language :P

mais je n'inquiete pas.

Would be better as "ca m'est egal", which literally translates as "it's the same to me". What's quoted reads as "but I'm not worried", and the reflexive form of that would have been "je ne m'inquiete pas" (it doesn't worry me).

...all with added accents of course, which this board doesn't parse so well.

So Strop, do you think it would be appropriate for my character to speak French or English with a French accent?

Both are fine, even broken English with French randomly interjected in there (particularly the exclamations) would be funny. For example:

"Do you know what those boofheads did, hein? They tried to steal from moi. Moi, Flippo le Hippo! Were it not for my trusty coup de baguette, they would have made off with my entire shop! Mon dieu!"

Could somebody kindly find and paste the URLs of the submissions from page 97 onwards? Would be much appreciated.

Also, deadline is looming! About half the victestants have replied!

(That was a play on grammar. :P though I hit (Submit) button a bit early before finishing the rest of my post. I wonder, though, if we can play the loopholes in syntactical juxtapositions, especially when something can have more than one meaning. )

But anyway, regarding coloring,
-the Bullman's nose ring is copper, the one he has now looks like brass
-his fingernails need to be colored.
