Speak slowly please ... Parlez plus lentement


(Dimanche matin, c'est Daddy qui a habillé sa fille...).

Les français se moquent des Suisses parce qu'ils parlent lentement. Je ne sais pas si c'est prouvé scientifiquement, mais je peux le confirmer par mon expérience. Après 10 ans à vivre ici, je n'arrive plus à comprendre les films français sans les sous-titres. Ils parlent juste trop vite pour moi !

De quoi me demander si maintenant je réfléchis aussi moins vite...

(Daddy chose the clothes this Sunday).

One of the things that the French mock the Swiss for is that they talk so slowly. I don't know if it's been scientifically proven (as such things seem to have to be), but it definitely matches my experience. After nearly ten years living here, I now need subtitles to be able to understand French films. They speak too fast!

Which leaves me wondering if I also think slower now...
