Okay, here goes. I was studying for my French test tomorrow and couldn't concentrate, so I logged onto Whyville! Then I began to think that maybe the Whyvillians might want to learn some French words... these were in my lesson book and I hope you enjoy them!
I couldn't figure out how to do the accent marks so I will not include those sorry
:(
