Calling French speakers--assistance s'il vous plait.

We are just finishing what will be the final chapter of The Librarian. It contains a scene at a French market where Jimmy purchases a martinet. I have written the French dialogue but would be very grateful if a better than me French speaker would check my words and correct as necessary.

You can count on me!

I will be happy to help.

Thanks to those who volunteered to assist with my French. I now have four versions of how I should/could have written the dialogue and some very (very) interesting information on the use of the martinet in French schools and families in the 1980s.

I will now mix and match those suggestions to produce the desired effect.

Geoffrey.

Je ne parlez pas francais.

I only kiss in French.

Je ne parle pas françsis.

See? I was right.

I think that one of us authors should cast you as a character in a story, as the strict stubborn father who insists he's right even when he is proven wrong.
