Becoming Bilingual (Etre Bilingue)
“ Qu’est-ce que tu veux encore”?
What more do you want?
But don’t use “tu” for her –
you’ll offend and your ignorance flaunt.
This is formal, “vous voulez”
is the “phrase du jour”.
And don’t say “hey!”
“Dis-tu “cou cou””!
How did “cheval” lead to chivalry?
(It involves knights and their kind
and “les règles de la chevalerie”)
Etymology and history intertwine.
But don’t stop there!
“Chassures” versus “cheveux”.
One is shoes, and one is hair.
Confusing them is easy to do.
