I can read it a bit, speak it very little. I could maybe decipher some if no one else steps up. There are people here who live in France, though.

I'm in about the same boat as Todd.  I was able to get myself and my friends through France on what I know, but mostly because I knew a few basic words and phrases and how to ask people if they knew English.

I speak French poorly, but I might be able to help.

Get in touch with Gay Puppy.

He'll help you out for an arse-sniffing.

I can understand spoken French just fine, but my grammar is terrible. Depending on how complex it is, I could probably help you out.

Is "Gay Puppy" Pascal? If so, that is quite possibly the most appropriate nickname I've ever heard.

I have a conversational grasp, also could step up, but i'd do better translating the other way, french into english. Surely there are actual, live frenchies somewhere here to do your translating...
