Love is not a feeling, love is a decision you make and continue to make in order to create an experience that is described as love. Love is an action that if you don’t use it you lose it. Love is like any communication, if you never send it out, you won’t get a return. Love is something you give to others not something you feel because something happens to you.

When you write a long number, you use commas to separate periods. Periods are simply groups of three numbers. They help make long numbers more readable. For example, here’s about as long a number as you’ll ever see: 234,845,021,349,123,653,459 The following list breaks this number down into periods. Quintillions 234 Quadrillions 845 Trillions 021 Billions 349 Millions 123 Thousands 653 Ones 459 This list helps you read the number. Begin all the way to the left and read, “Two hundred thirty-four quintillion, eight hundred forty-five quadrillion, twenty-one trillion, three hundred forty-nine billion, one hundred twenty-three million, six hundred fifty-three thousand, three hundred fifty-nine.” When you read and write whole numbers, don’t say the word and. In math, the word and means you have a decimal point. That’s why when you write a check, you save the word and for the number of cents, which is expressed as a decimal or fraction.

m'=me s'=se are reflexive pronoun Pronominal verbs are verbs that need a reflexive pronoun in addition to a subject pronoun, because the subject(s) performing the action of the verb are the same as the object(s) being acted upon. Nous nous habillons. We're getting dressed (dressing ourselves). Tu te baignes. You're taking a bath (bathing yourself). There are two steps in conjugating pronominal verbs. First, take the reflexive pronoun se, change it to agree with the subject of the verb, and place it directly in front of the verb. Then, as with all verbs, conjugate the infinitive according to whether it's an -er, -ir, -re, or irregular verb. Elle se brosse les dents. She's brushing her teeth. Vous vous levez tard. You get up late.
