ALLONS COMMENCER ENCORE (LET US COMMENCE [START UP] AGAIN
This post is going to be a trial run to see if I can write and enter the audio to future posts.
J(e)’souhaite que j(e)’vas être capab(le) de commencer mes posts encore. Ça donne beaucoup longtemps que j’ai pu réussir à vous envoyer des nouveaux posts. Pas ça seul(e)ment, mais aussi, que vous-autres pourrez (puissiez)* naviguer facil(e)ment sur mon blog.
*The subjunctive form in the present was not heard in my locale. We simply used the simple future
I hope that I will be able to commence my posts again. It has been a long time that I have been able to be successful to send you some new posts. Not only that, but also, that you will be able to navigate, easily, on my blog.
J’ai eu un tas d(e)’temps pour jongler à quoi que j’puisse (pourrai) choisir comme sujets pour mes nouveaux posts. J(e)’vas essayer de choisir des sujets qui vont vous am(e)ner un tas de plaisir et vous aider à comprend(re) la langue des Cajuns.
I have had a lot of time to think as to what I could choose as subjects for my new posts. I will endeavor to choose some subjects that will bring you a lot of pleasure and aid you to understand the Cajun language.
Remember that Cajuns elide or drop many letters and sounds. I have put those so dropped in parentheses to help you pronounce it the Cajun way.
Merci encore pour vot(re) patience et j(e)’souhaite que l’avenir va êt(re) bien taillé.
Thank you again for your patience and I hope that the future will be well carved.
Glad to see you are back and once again thank you for this site. I look forward to trying another attempt at learning Cajun French in 2009.
Awww, finally a drink.
Merci
It’s nice to see a blog like this. I never learned cajun french, because my grandparents only spoke it to hide information from us when we were little. In our minds it was a language adults used to keep information away from children.
lol Cajun French. My parents and grandparents did the same thing to me andmy brothers.
NOw, I wish I would’ve pushed harder to not lose the Cajun language I could now know.
Merci.
Looking forward to your upcoming updated website blog.

Did’nt learn to speak english till I started grammer school in N.O. My family always spoke french. Lost my abaility to speak gradually after my mother passed away in 76, never spoke english to her in my life. Now I see my chance to get caught up again.
