What kind of American English do you speak?
A short quiz which tests how you hear/say vowels as well as your choice of a few expressions. After a dozen questions you are identified by geographic region. I came out "Northern inland," which is not where I've lived for 45+ years, but where I grew up.
If you're interested, take the quiz and post your result here. If you're a francophone, what result did you get? In person, can you hear the difference in accents among us anglophones ?

Happy New Year

Friday, January 1 will be a holiday for the WICE French-English Conversation Groups.

The groups will resume on January 4.

Same days, same time, same place.

Happy New Year

See you soon!

Pictures from the Singalong

Brigitte has shared her photos with us. Thanks and remerciements à tous !

Sing Along Was A Success

We were so busy talking, eating and singing that we didn't count how many people attended this year's event. It was a lot of people.

If you attended, we hope you had fun.

We'll try to post some photos in the next few days.

Remember that the groups will continue throughout December and January without interruption.

We will not hold groups on December 25 and January 1.

Photos From The Groups

Mary shot these photos in June before the gouter. I think she's captured the ambience of the groups.

Enjoy the summer. Conversation groups start again on September 15 from 4:30 to 6 PM, same place as last year.

French Pronunciation

Attention Anglophones.

WICE is offering a great new class -- French Pronunciation. It will start in March. It is a great way to polish your language skills and get to the next level of fluency.

Contact the WICE office or look on the WICE website for details.
