It’s just a suggestion.

Quebec is also where I learned the phrase "No cop, no stop."

But I think they were arrested for not saying arrêt.

Quebec is where I learned to channel Peggy Hill if someone tries to force me to speak French. Maintenant, Repeté!

Jay parlay Fran-says tray bee-in. Jay-tude en laycole, quart ans.

About that time they switch to English, and beg me to never attempt to speak French again

Lol.

J'comprend Français, bien. J'parle Français un peu.
