My French is still good. That's a beautiful language and I'm happy to speak it.
They (Expos fans) discovered 'boo' is pronounced the same in French as it is in English.

My father always wanted to be 'Col-bear.' He lived in the same town as his father, and his father didn't like the idea of the name with the French pronunciation. So my father said to us, 'Do what you want. You're not going to offend anybody.' And he was dead long before I made my decision.
I never dream in French, but certain French words seem better or more fun than English words - like 'pois chiches' for chick peas!
By the way, the secret of speaking French is confidence. Whether you are right or wrong, you don't hesitate.
