Men speaking in an Australian accent sound rowdy

Women on other hand sound extremely sexy

Personal preference I guess

For example. I find Margot Robbie way more attractive when she speaks American in movies rather than her day-to-day Australian

Of course Nish knows it .... I 've found out just some days ago and I find curious how French people say numbers from 70 to 99

Did you know / Fact thread - Page 7 Photo-2020-04-21-15-27-11

It means that   Ninety is Quatre - Vingt - Dix = Four  - Twenty  - Ten  
Ninety-nine is  quatre vingt dix neuf =  translated for  Four  Twenty Ninteen


French numbering system has its roots in an ancient use of the numbering base 20 (vigesimal system). ... In this case, the number 80 and its successors are expressed as multiples of "four times twenty", in an expression overflowing with mathematics

it is a legacy of the influence of  the Celtic culture on the French language that  remained despite the partial Latinization  after the Roman conquest.

Relevant , perhaps it's the only language with this particularity. And country too.

For example in Belgium ( @rincon) , where ppl talk French, you 've not the vegesimal system. They say simply " Huitante " for Eighty. No  mathematical operation.

quatre vingt dix neuf is quite a stupid way of saying ninety nine tbh
But I like it. That is culture.

It can be quite frustrating and maddening when you get exposed to the French language as an adult. But believe me, if you learn it from a very young age, it's one of the easiest languages to learn.

I would still put it above English in terms of difficulty because English is probably the easiest language to learn in the world.

Fact - DoC called French government corrupt and criminal for not allowing the use of hydroxychloroquine on Coronavirus patients despite the fact that the drug had not undergone certified credible scientific test.

It’s like he was setting the path that Trump has gone down, but at least in Trump’s case, it has been revealed he has personal financial interest in the manufacturer. We don’t know about DoC.

What we do know is now that the German sampling he referred to has been discredited and that proper studies are now confirming that the drug doesn’t work for coronavirus, DoC no longer posts related to this malaria drug.

Fact - you're in the wrong thread.

Fact - Chloroquine alone doesn't work and has to be associated with azithromycin to work, AND it has to be given to the patient at the beginning of the infection otherwise it doesn't work.

Fact - the French government is corrupt and there are already several lawsuits being submitted against their top dogs for their incompetence in handling the crisis.

Fact - Tunisia has been using Chloroquine since the beginning in association with azithromycin and it has one of the lowest death cases in the world.

Fact - I no longer post in the coronavirus thread because I no longer follow the news because I no longer want to read about people dying like flies.

Fact - I never claimed that Chloroquine is THE cure. It does only reduce the viral charge in patients and nothing else. We still have to wait until a vaccine is made to truly beat this thing.

Fact - All I did was voice my discontent towards a government that has absolutely no cure, but still refuses to use the one treatment that in certain cases COULD save people's lives.

And finally, please don't try to advance your own agenda with me. If you hate trump, hate him all you want but don't drag me into it or mention my name in the same sentence as his. Thank you and good night.
