Hey everyone, My name is Xavier and I have 19 years old. I'm french and i'm study english/scandinavian at Lyon 2 (french university). I'm sorry, my english is not perfect but i'm try to improve. Since I'm young, I love to writed and reading. I'm reading lots of books in different categories. I have not only one favorite book (it's too difficult ). Here are som of my favorite titles : - Vendredi ou la vie sauvage - Le faucon déniché - Lucky Luke - Resilience: How Your Inner Strength Can Set You Free from the Past Since two months ago, I'm writing my testimony on school harassment. It is a big challenge because it is really difficult. I have many bad memory. I'm writting this book in french and in english. I publish the new chapters bit by bit on scribay (french plateform) and on Wattpad. I'm really happy to discover this forum. I'm impatient to read your stories, exchange with you and I have many questions to ask you. See you soon, Xavier
Bienvenue! This will be a great place for you to practice your writing and your English. I have visited Lyon, but only briefly. I wish I could remember the name of the used book store where I bought my copy of the Mémoires de Hector Berlioz. It wasn't far from Place Ampère. We hope you'll enjoy the forums!
Hi Xavier! I'm curious about how you pronounce that, just for reasons. Is it "Ex-Avier", like the way they pronounce Professor Xavier's name on the X-Men movies? That seems very odd to me, because you don't say 'Ex-ylophone", it's pronounced like "zylophone". So it always seemed to me the good Professor's name should be pronounced like 'Zavier', which sounds like Savior, which is really what he is to his students, and to all the people saved by them. Sorry if this is hard to follow. But anyway, welcome to the forum!
Hey, Merci . It was probably the book store "Descours" (Librairie Descours) or the library "Clagahe "(Librairie ancienne Clagahe). Is it right ? In french, we said "ksavje" and "ksilɔfɔn". Here you can hear my voice how to pronounce that : https://1fichier.com/?qq60jzghf1pddc5yw6sa
