BLECH "GGGRUUUUUGHR!" - In Which We Practice "R" In TPL

TPL is the coolest class. We only have it once a week for forty five minutes, and it's forbidden to have TPL homework or tests. Thus, it's a class of no worries. Plus, we get to practice speaking our French. See, TPL stands for travaux pratiques langues which means practical language practice, which "wants to say" pronunciation of French.

So on Wednesday we were sitting in TPL practicing the "R", a very weird sound in French that is really hard to make. It's like in Spanish, when you roll the R, you know? Kind of like that but way harder because you don't roll the R in French (unless you're a spanish tourist, of course) and it has this kind of weird "GUUUHRUH!" sound. Mme. Pallicot was going around the room having us pronounce words with the "R" but we still can't do it because it's really hard. So she starts exaggerating this weird "choking" sound and it's absolutely ridiculous to listen too and we all start laughing and it's hilarious.

GUHHHHRHUHRRH! BLECH! GRRRRRRUHHUHHH!

And remember this: no matter what Pallicot says, SHREK IS AN OGRE!
