    1. @scribus Prends une baguette avec du fromage et frappe ton tête contre le mur. Or take French classes.

        1. @scribus I can't say about the effectiveness of these online courses. I had French in school and I forgot a lot since then.

          1. @adiwan Really, all I need is enough to fake a somewhat convincing accent.

            1. @scribus Watch some French videos (for example from a French news channel https://www.youtube.com/user/tv5monde/videos ) , record yourself saying some words, listen to the recording, repeat until a convincing result emerges. Never tested this method.

    2. @scribus speak: take a course - fake: do not take a course.

        1. @scribus It's the opening to a French song written phonetically. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BHsER0a7MGA
