NationStates Jolt Archive

Many of us like to complain about the French semi-socialist model, and now we can show their Minsitry Of The Economy, Finances And Industry how much better France would be with us running it, with the ministry's new Cyber-Budget game:

Of course, it may all be fixed to favour their existing policies. Or maybe it's highly accurate and they'll monitor what players do and steal the best ideas.

Oh, it's in French only by the way, so Americans might find this utility (http://babelfish.altavista.com/) useful: :-)

Well, I'm assuming NationStates is blocked in China and everyone else is taught French at school. Plus, the smiley is an indication that it wasn't a serious remark.

I had a go at that the other day - I managed to get past my mediocre grasp of the French language and I thought it was doing okay. Then I realised I was playing an economics game, so I stopped.

I took German instead of French.

Ah, we had to do French and then had to choose another language at 13. I picked German, 'cause I'm not good with languages, and the other option was Russian (apparently the Cold War never ended at my school).

Me no no hardish spoke engrish 1111!!!one-one-wun-wian.

Well, I can, but if I pack too much into a sentence as I normally do, I begin not to make sense.

I need to get elected in France, I own at this.

I am quite capable of speaking French fluently; do not assume that I need to translate the page just because I am an American. :mad:

This is the fastest I seen a thread go off topic. Not even a page worth, Im saying its a bad thing Im saying its a record.

And I opted for Spanish. Helluva lot more useful than French, especially in the Western hemisphere. French is a dying language, internationally speaking (no pun intended).

French is much more of a diplomatic language than Spanish. Spanish is much more of a, umm, workers' language?
