Why do they saddle me with scripts that have French names? I am terrible at them!

I’ve recorded the French names for you, it’s easier than trying to explain.
Check your emails, I've sent you an mp3.

French pronunciation lesson?

Look what I've found, free on the internet, with audio:

It's great! Laugh
