Today, I began taking a French language class. After completing and submitting some homework, I got a response. A response that was completely in French. I can't understand shit. FML

Google translate is your best friend in times like this.

Although Google Translate obviously has its flaws, and is in no way an appropriate tool to translate official texts or homework or whatnot, it can be a great help in quickly getting the general meaning of a text. It has to be used intelligently though, and that's where a lot of people fail.

Hi I'm the OP. This is just from an online French class, and there's quite a few people taking it. The only reason I couldn't understand was because I had *JUST* started and none of that made sense yet. Also perhaps because it started with only teaching phrases. I'm just going to stick to the lesson and hope it works out. ':)

N'hésite pas à utiliser un dictionnaire lorsque tu ne comprends pas, c'est la meilleure façon d'apprendre de nouveaux mots. (Don't hesitate to use a dictionary when you don't understand, it's the best way to learn new words.)

it's actually pretty common for foreign language classes.... because you need to translate the words in order to understand what was said, and you learn more words that way. Google translate will give you the general gist yes, but then you don't get the full understanding of the lesson. do what you do op but if you actually want to learn the language then do the work. good luck
