Learn with Haiku Tuesday – L’entretien de la mémoire

Hi! This is the second post in our new Learn with Haikus feature. This time it’s in French! I can’t vouch that the French is of perfect quality, so if there are any mistakes, I hope des francophones agréables will help me out :)

The rules are the same – translate these haikus into English while maintaining the haiku format. I’ll showcase my favorite next week, and in the future there might be prizes. So don’t hold back – learn with haikus!

Even if you can’t translate the haiku, tell me what it’s about in the comments. Other than the title, I’m not giving any hints.

L’apprentissage de
deux langues entretient la
mémoire. Quoi de trois ?

OK, OK – I can never write just one…here’s another one. Either one is fair game.

DailyFrenchPod, c’était
ça qui m’a dit sur ceci
Bon objet, pas vrai?

    My French skills are quite limited, but I’ll take a guess;
    Entry about memories/The memory entry
    Learning two languages is important. What about three?

    Hey Heidi,

    Good try. Time to solve this mystery:

    Learning another
    language keeps your memory
    fresh. What about two? [< —this was tricky. I changed the number because in the French version I just gave the total number of languages; in this one, I gave the number of additional languages, if that makes sense.)

    DailyFrenchPod was
    the one who told me about
    this. Good topic, no?

    Thanks again for trying :D

    Kevin
