Curious George: French Mefi? Does anyone know of a mefi/mofi equivalent in french?
  • I only know this one, but hopefully someone else will have something which I will then greedily snarfle up.
  • Since this is an unpopular thread may I offer up a K'niggits joke?
  • Since you've made nearly 300 comments in a month flat and offered no links, do you not think your next offering might not rather be something of the linky kind?
  • Funny you ask Torluath, I was about to launch one on canalblog last tuesday, when I realized that html was disabled in comments ! How stupid is that ? The only way to share links via the comments is to write down the urls for ppl to copy and paste them ! unbelievable. Anyway, I'm planning to start one as soon as possible, I'll post it here when it's ready. - Wolof: the content of aeiou is very good. Shame it works only on invitation and the comments are so scarce.
  • I was going to say I really enjoy a lot of the links on aeiou as well, though it seems less community-like [that of course may be due to inexecrable French]
  • Oui
  • ...inexcrable...
  • bees, you make me giggle :o)
  • From ask.mefi: Can anyone recommend some good French-language blogs? Might contains some leads.
  • And as long as we're talking about foreign language stuff, does anyone know of anything like a German MoFi (or MeFi)?
  • I'll post it here when it's ready. Great!
  • right, beeswacky, I now notice that I left out the crucial "my" indicating it was my ability to speak the language rather than the language itself that was deserving of cursing and wailing. However, now that I think about it... I didn't know the word itself was obsolete and potentially that it never even existed (a nifty trick, that, both ignored and non-existent). Also didn't know the Columbia encycolpedia of American Standard English was so snarky!
  • 1594 Constable Diana viii. i, Though shee protests the faithfullest severitie, inexecrable beautie is inflicting.
  • Thanks for the aeiou link, Wolof. There's some really great stuff there, like these B Day fireworks pics for eg. But, I'm still looking for a place I could post in french -- so go, Koant, go!
  • ilyadeux: Thought the word was interesting, but didn't understand what you meant. I got curious since it was unfamiliar to me, so Googled to see what it was all about. Wasn't trying to be snarky, and I apologize if what I wrote came across that way.
