French subtopic ideas

[hugs&kisses]

Hi everyone, am doing my AS level French Oral on Guadeloupe, and am trying to do my 3rd subtopic. The first two I've done on tourism in Guadeloupe and the culture, has anyone got any good ideas about what I could do as my third? Just basically something I can talk about for a couple of minutes, am a bit stumped to be honest!
Thanks to all

you could talk about how it is one of the DOM's (departements outre mer) and go on to discuss a couple of the others like Martinique et la Reunion, just to link with Guadeloupe and come full circle in the discussion about Guadeloupe's place in french society. im sure your french assistant could help you with any info. i completed my french a level last year and it's not as scary as it seems, you'll be amazed how short the presentation is. just post again if there are any other aspects i can help you with, im on here most days. good luck

How about talking about the British love of horses which is probably why we do not eat them as opposed to the French?

"Un difference cultural" as such?

bewlay don't be so damn xenophobic, your comment only seems to reinforce your own ignorance. sarcasm isn't needed.

arwenant, I am afraid I do not like your tone.

Where, preytell is the xenophobia on my answer. The French do eat horses which is a cultural difference to the British.

So I suggest you look at your own ignorance levels before you post in some pseudo-temper.

And yes, I have eaten horse on many occassions, you racist piece of filth.

Hugs, sorry this thread has descended in to this. My suggestion was meant seriously and knowing you are a clever girl, I am sure you will see no xenophobia in it.

all i merely meant to say was that your answer bore no reference to the question asked and so your response was pointless. you are wrong to judge me, i live in france and find the stereotypes from english people consistently annoying and therefore they are often interpreted over here as xenophobic. cross of culture i suppose. but i am certainly no racist, i do not appreciate your demeaning condescending comment and i am extremely offended by it. i admit i may have made a snap judgement but yours is worse and i apologise for yours and i hope you will do likewise to quell this animosity that has unecessarily arisen.

The day I apologise to a snail eating, garlic smelling froggie whose grandfather probably run away from the War, will be the day I die young lady.

How's that for proper offence mon petite Francais amiee?
