French will always be special to me because it was the first foreign language I tried to learn.

It took it for 3 semesters in high school. Though I never became fluent, it opened the door to my dormant language learning talent.

Nearly 3 decades later and I'm back at it. And with Spanish and many other languages under my belt, literacy is just a few years away.

Français Perception · Truth
clair

«voir clair dans»

/vwaʁ klɛʁ dɑ̃/
To see through (a deception or pretense).

The French don't catch you in a lie — they see clearly through it. A centuries-old instinct that treats truth as light and a flimsy excuse as the fog it cuts through.
