Hi, I'm looking for casual conversational French. My French skills are intermediate, I'd say (Level B1). I can speak with intermediate to advanced English learners. I love music and guitars, books and traveling. I would be happy to trade recommendations with you. Lately, I've been listening to a lot of jazz and psychedelic rock, but my tastes vary widely. Right now I am reading Hygiene and the Assassin, by Amélie Nothomb (in English... my French language skills are not yet good enough). What recommendations do you have? .. Bonjour, je cherche un français conversationnel décontracté. Mes compétences en français sont juste en dessous du niveau intermédiaire, je dirais. Je peux parler avec des apprenants d'anglais intermédiaire à avancé. J'aime la musique et les guitares, les livres et les voyages. Je serais ravi de faire des recommandations avec vous. Dernièrement, j'ai écouté beaucoup de jazz et de rock psychédélique, mais mes goûts varient considérablement. En ce moment, je lis Hygiène et Assassin, par Amélie Nothomb (en anglais ... mes compétences en français ne sont pas encore assez bonnes). (J'accueille des corrections à cette biographie.) Quelles recommandations avez-vous?

    Thanks, Jeff, but I honestly can't tell the difference. From a user standpoint, there is no difference among: Community/Answers/Discussions. They all mean the same thing to me and there is no way to search them. @italki #italki

    Yes, thank you, Phil, I know about that. But that's not what I'm talking about. I want to schedule a lesson for tomorrow. But it is within 24 hours.

    Why can't we schedule lessons less than 24 hours in advance? Why can't we schedule lessons less than 24 hours in advance? For example, I want to schedule a lesson for tomorrow, but all the schedules are greyed-out. There are teachers who obviously have time available, but italki won't allow scheduling? Why not? Is there any way around this? @italki #italki P.S. It would be very useful to be able to search Answers and Discussions (what's the difference, anyway?) to see if this has been asked/answered before.

    I agree with Michael. Just avoid it unless you are writing song lyrics or just want to sound goofy.

    I have never heard nor read the word, "meadow," used as a verb.

    There's no article before the first one, either. They both have adjectives (good, lasting). An article is not required.

    I agree with Su.Ki.  I would only add that I don't think Americans look down on "get round," not at all. We simply recognize it as a Britishism. And most of the time I'd say Americans find it amusing in a good way. Generally, Americans love hearing British speakers.
