It's up now. 
Thanks! Got Goodbye Emmanuelle, Coeur Battant, and Cambodia. I might end up getting Short Circuit too but I'm still undecidedIt's up now.![]()
The prononciation is different in France and Québec, yes, in that particular case it's not really different (the vowels differ, mostly), but in other cases the differences are more noticeable.Ugh trying to explain the pronunciation in English is really hard. Even after listening to the guide and reading the advice of our experts. And different in Quebec French MarieMary??? Oh my! I'll never get this language.
OK, you just bought everything that I really want. I DEMAND SWATCHES. Just kidding. But if you could see your way to posting some when you receive your order, I'd be really grateful.The prononciation is different in France and Québec, yes, in that particular case it's not really different (the vowels differ, mostly), but in other cases the differences are more noticeable.
People say French is hard to learn, but like katred said so is English.Believe me that with the very basics, you get yourself understood, and what matters is getting your point across and communicating your thought, not speaking the language flawlessly.
I'll be looking forward to your swatches before this collection reaches Europe.
I used to work for a French (as in based in France) company and a lot of their employees were from France originally. They used to liken the Quebec accent to a duck quacking... In truth, there's a lot of variation even within the province (as there certainly is within France). I know my (francophone) fiance cringes when he hears really "back country" Quebec accents, being a city-bred boy...
But certainly English is difficult, because it comes from a lot of different sources. Other languages- like French or German or Spanish- have relatively straightforward roots. English is a hybrid of all the British invaders- the Romans, the Germanic tribes, the Celts, the Vikings and the French. So its words and rules come from ALL of those.

Lol I definitely will do. I am so worried about the eyeshadow smashing. Fingers crossed it gets here in one pieceThe nice thing about learning French is that it actually opens the door to being able to understand other Romance (Latin-based) languages. I used to date someone from Madrid and when we visited his family, I could follow along with the conversations in a general way, even though I couldn't speak the language. Or just pick up stuff from the permanent collection that you've always been meaning to get!
