Parlez vous
Je suis la jeune fille!
I took 4 years of French in high school, 2 semesters in college and even did a bit of shopping at the Galeries Lafayette. My mastery of the foreign language was never profound and probably beyond a little rusty, yet, I still remember the French phrase Muzzy said in a commercial decades ago. Oh, how I wanted Muzzy (along with a Barbie power wheels missing from my childhood…). I digress…
Do you remember Muzzy? The BBC Language Course for Children (apparently, #1 in the World). I was curious to see if he was still around – and he is! Speaking more languages than before, including Brazilian Portuguese which has recently been added to my list of things to do. (One minute, you are meeting friends from Brazil and the next thing you know, you are checking the box that says “Languages: Portuguese”)
