    Introduction Salut! Je m'appelle Stephanie. J'habite aux États-Unis, à New York. J'ai étudié le français en école primaire, au lycée, et à l'université. Je ne l'ai pas pratiqué depuis longtemps, jusqu'au moment que j'ai découvert le sita Duolingo.com, il y a un an. Je veux pratiquer l'écriture et la conversation en français. Merci pour avoir lu ça!

    Question about "etre excite" A french teacher recently said that "etre excite" (sorry, no accents on this computer) means that you are sexually excited, and that to be just plain excited is "etre impatient". I was just watching an english movie with french subtitles, and when the character said "you could see that he was excited" it was translated to "on voyait qu'il etait excite". Did whoever was doing the translating make a big faux-pas there?

    Est-ce qu'on peut dire "Je suis allé en Amérique étudier l'anglais"? Je pensais qu'on doit utiliser "pour" ou "afin de" avant d'"étudier", mes c'était une réponse correcte sur un examen que j'ai pris aujourd'hui. Je vous remercie en avance!

    A Strong Mom

    I was at a cafe on my break when I heard a boy crying out. The boy apparently asked his mom to buy a toy, but she said no, so he started crying. Although his mother calmly told me him to be quiet at first, she eventually started saying it more and more firmly because he wouldn't stop crying. He tried talking back to no avail, and the way he wriggled in protest was so funny that I couldn't help but laugh. At last, the little boy, screaming and kicking, was dragged out of the cafe by his mother!

    I see kids like that all the time, but I think most mothers would probably have given in. What a strong mom!

    aimer + adjective + noun? I was marked wrong on a test for translating "J'aime les nouveaus manteaux" as "I like new coats". It was, "I like THE new coats". I suspect that 'I like new coats (in general)' is "J'aime de nouveaux manteaux" but I can't find confirmation anywhere, or what the rule is. Would appreciate some help. Thanks!

    to use get

    Let's try an exercise with get.

    Today I get up early and I get off the bed. I get in a car to go shopping. Then I get on a bus to visit a castle. I would like to get away to a sunny country. I prefer to ride a bike, I get over obstacles and I get between trees [both uses of "get" in this sentence would sound better with "go"]. I get through after the ride and I get put down the bycicle. Finally I get along with friends. ["Get along with" means you have a good relationship with. It sounds awkward in this context. Maybe you meant you "go out with friends"?]
