I’ve been studying French for just over 3 years now on Duolingo. One of the (many) things I really struggle with is accents. This comment on Ask a Manager really highlighted for me that this is something I should work on:

Mi papá tiene 47 años: “my father is 47 years old”
Mi papa tiene 47 anos: “my potato has 47 anuses”

Now I’m curious what homonyms I’m mangling in French. Is it a homonym if the accents are different?)

What book are you reading right now?

I’m rereading Good Omens by Terry Pratchett & Neil Gaiman. I’ve read this book more times than I can count. This is one of the books I pick up when I’m too tired to read something new or under stress. This book is the threadbare blanket that you turn to because, somehow, it’s the coziest blanket in the house.
