hi,

I'm a student from India.

In hopes to get better at french i read the French Darby Bible comparing it with the ASV bible. Is there any audio book/website for the FDB bible. If there isn't, this website you mentioned. What version of the bible is it? I would like to be able to read along.

Thanks so much
Gideon

The site Joy referred us to is almost certainly the Louis Segond translation.

But I ust found a site that offers mp3 files of the JNDarby version :

One difference between we French and the anglo-saxon mindset is that

I was chatting with the dad of a friend of Gwilym. He works for a multinational aeronautics firm, so he speaks pretty good English (though we stuck to French), he knows that Welsh culture is different from English culture (hurrah !) and ... wait for it ... he has visited Cwmcarn many times. He said, "Of course, one difference between the French and the Anglo-Saxon mindset is that we are very logical while you are very pragmatic." I think I looked puzzled and doubtful... "You must do something", he said, "and if that does not work then you will change and do something else until you find out what does work. We must reflect before we do anything." He's so right. Although the verb 'to reflect' exists in English I don't think I ever used it and I certainly never did it. I MUCH prefer to do SOMETHING than nothing, even if it is the wrong thing. After all, in a crisis to do nothing is usually the wrong thing. However here in France I find that w...

A bit about music exams in UK and France

They're really different. I think I have already mentioned that while in the UK people generally find a private teacher for their instrument, or do it through a school scheme, here there are municipal music school, conservatoires and so on. The situation is a little more complex than I had first understood, because the schools vary in the rigidity of their organisation: the most, the conservatoires, next the municipals, then the associations. Our music school is an association, but it tends to apply the standards of the municipal schools with its programme of cycles, etc. Britain - grade 1 to 8, grade 8 being roughly equivalent to A-level, pre university/conservatoire. France - 3 cycles, each taking about 4 years, with 3ème cycle being roughly equivalent to grade 8. Theory of music - UK to take grade 8 you need theory grade 5. In France you study theory alongside your instrumental studies, very slowly. Catrin's flute music is MUCH more difficult than the stuff she does in theor...

Kindles

Great! Yes, you don't have the feel, smell, heft, thrill of a book. But you can have LOADS of books on the thing and then slip it in your pocket! You can buy books in English, French, Welsh (some) and Spanish right here in France. Not only that but there's LOTS of free books available, classics as well as Christian books. I know you are supporting the evil beast Amazon which killed off independent booksellers, then killed off the chains and now is killing off everyone else, too. So I am not advocating never buying a book again. The full immersive reading experience does need that smell, the ability to scribble, dog-ears, tears, smudges, etc... But we do find these Kindle things jolly useful. I have tried in my time, and I put in order of preference : Kindle Paperwhite. Nice white screen and good to read in the dark. (The newer one's even better) Kindle app on mobile phone. OK if your screen is big enough. Kindle Fire. Also pretty good, but you can get dis...
