There are nice emojis available on TERB but not here, we deserve better emojis too!
Les comptes-rendus en français de rencontres avec les péripatéticiennes sont les bienvenus.Je voudrais revenir sur le sujet principal de ce tread : Random thoughts, what is in your mind lately. What’s in my mind reading this thread (and others so popular) is not very sexy. C’est une question de langue (sans jeux de mots). J’ai remarqué que la majorité des contributeurs des fils de discussions peuvent écrire dans un très bon français mais plus de 90% des discussions sont en anglais. J’ai en tête l’image d’une réunion avec 10 participants, 9 francophones et un anglophone et la réunion se déroule en anglais. Ce forum est celui de Montréal, où la langue est censée être française. Je comprend très bien que la plateforme de MERB est anglophone avec TERB et PERB, mais qu’est ce qui nous empêche de communiquer dans notre langue? Je ne prêche pas par l’exemple puisque j’ai souvent écris en anglais. J’aimerais avoir votre opinion sur ce sujet.
It was my patriotic 2 cents …..
Sans rancune.

That what I was asking for : opinion. You have a good point.I just believe your word is your bond and there better be a real serious reason for you to miss an appointment with someone. Plus, you just lost a possible reference. Say a person wanted to see a friend of the SP they cancelled on.
I am not exactly sure how you can definitively say that the majority of contributors can speak French or that 90 percent of discussions are in english. I do think that you probably get a fair number of English only Americans(myself included) on this board that travel to Montreal for business and pleasure. This board is a wealth of information for them. I also know that when there is a SP I want to know more about or a post like yours captures my attention, I will use the Google translate to understand the French. Ultimately, I am grateful that we are lucky that we live in a time where the technology exists where we can communicate at all on a board to learn about people and email/text a provider to find someone who maybe what you are looking for than going in completely blind. Things were a lot different 30 years ago looking at the backpages of local city periodicals.
This one comes back frequently. Maybe ask Fred Zed to kick some tech butts on this issue.There are nice emojis available on TERB but not here, we deserve better emojis too!
Je ne me vois pas lui écrire un privé, je ne sais pas quel endroit serait le plus approprié pour faire la demande, et que je ne sois pas la seule à le faire.This one comes back frequently. Maybe ask Fred Zed to kick some tech butts on this issue.
On ne se parle vraiment pas souvent mais à chaque fois il est avenant.Je ne me vois pas lui écrire un privé, je ne sais pas quel endroit serait le plus approprié pour faire la demande, et que je ne sois pas la seule à le faire.
Oh! Une personne d’expérience …I started working independently with a woman who started working back when it was normal to post an ad in the newspaper
Why do my best posts often end up, in all of their glory, at the top of the next page?
(real random thought)
I wrote multiple comments in response to some posts on that thread but just before hitting the post button i deleted... staying away from that rabbit hole...Boy do I feel dumb. I’ve been tricked into a political debate. I should have known better.
