It comes back real fast though, when you're surrounded by people who speak it. I forget every language I know if I don't use it every day.

Wanna know what's weird though? Retraining your brain to think in English again. All the words sound wrong, and I constantly spell 'of' as 'uv' and 'is' as 'iz'.

MOntrealers love Americans, though, so if you're clearly an American who doesn't speak French but tries to, you're in like Flynn!
