Oh no...I was thinking things were starting to look a bit rickety recently. Perhaps they'll fair better on the second wave... ;)

(BTW Is anyone taking bets on how long it will be before our friend Newyorkeric closes the thread? LOL!) 2 persons have voted this message useful | ||||||

Oh, lol, the video is blocked for me. So, fell for it but wasn't rick-rolled.
Which reminds me, neologisms and how they spread (discuss) and wikipedia and how fun it is to read a common article (like April Fools' Day/Joke) in as many languages as one can comprehend, somehow. It makes for a fun activity on a rainy Sunday evening. 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

Thanks for scaring the living hell out of me.
It made me think though for a moment on the importance of supporting publishers of language-learning materials who provide us with so much enjoyment. Whenever you find a resource you consider valuable and worthwhile, please purchase it legally so that those who made it can afford to make more of it. Besides, holding an Assimil book in your hand and displaying it on your shelves is immeasurably more satisfying than a crappy PDF off a file download site. 9 persons have voted this message useful |
