My scrap of dirt

maybe "ouch"? Quoique, je ne suis même pas sûre que ça s'utilise aussi en français. Les gens normaux disent "aïe" et "ouille" je crois...

A friend of mine made a beautiful Tara/Willow video (but I don't think it goes as far as the end of season 6). If I find it back I'll put it on YouSendIt for you to download it.

From:

Non, "ouch" n'est pas Français... ;-)

From:

aaargh, je me disais bien. On se demande d'où ça peut venir, tiens! 0:-)

Mais franchement, aïe, ça sonne creux!

From:

On peut alterner le "aïe" et le "ouille". ;-)

greenie_breizh, for when is that translation due? And which book is it?
It has to be available in French somewhere, there may be a way to find out how it has officially been translated.

From:

Look at my comment.
"And which book is it?"
Look up at the last paragraph of your post.
Suddenly feel stupid.

;-)

From:

It's okay :) I do that all the time... and yeah, but I wanna avoid looking up the commercial translation. I'm one of those really sad people that won't be really happy with herself if she knows she got it right because she looked it up in the actual book ;) ;) As I was saying to

grimma, I think I'll go for "ahou" whenever I find how you spell it.

From:

It's due... in a week, basically.

From:

Awww, that'd be so nice!! I'm always in need of some Willow/Tara goodness :)

As for "ugh", I'm more and more thinking "Aou" (however I decide this sound is spelled in French) fits best... Aie and Ouille just feel weird in the context of the text.

Willow/Tara goodness - the links expire in 7 days

(this is the one I was talking about. It was made by Ronia)

I found back so many Jossverse fan vids... I have at least 5 CDs full of them. Can you imagine I downloaded them when I was still on dial-up?
It brings back all those warm feelings of the Buffy era... you know, when you could get angry at someone for spoiling you about Spike coming back to town... When you believed in Ganya... When you were in denial and thought that, of course, it could go on and on...

From:

Thank you so much!!!

I'm just having trouble (so far, since I haven't finished downloading the 3rd video) with the first video, entitled "Happy Girl"... When I try and read it on windows media player or even BSplayer, the image is just so slow, and I don't know why, it's not supposed to be. Any idea, has it ever done that to you?

And yeah, I totally know what you mean about the fan clips... just seeing images or rereading bits of scripts sometimes make me feel warm and nostalgic :)

From:

Mmmm... I watched Happy Girl before sending it to you and didn't have any pb - I used WMP. I'm not good at video stuff, I only know that you have to have the good codecs... Now I don't know how to determine what is a "good" codec.

From:

Argh, it's killing me. I'm downloading the latest update for WMP right now, hopefully that will change everything. Somehow I'm doubtful ;)

From:

I hope it works. I can't see some "old" CoRo videos now, so I'm not surprised you have troubles with Happy Girl.

From:

It doesn't. Urgh. When Fan' will come I'll try to move the file to her computer and see if it works on hers. Meep. Thanks so much for the two others anyway, and even for this one :) (it's killing me cuz I like the music it uses and the images seem so nice!! Geep! ;)

Btw, sorry if that's indiscreet so feel free not to reply, but how come you post on LJ in English (since I believe I've understood you were French ;)? Or more like, how come you seem to love using English that much?

From:

No problem - if I ever feel something is indiscreet I simply won't reply or comment.

I entered the LJ through American friends and I love using English so I guess that's why I post in English in my LJ. When I come back from England, I feel depressed only because I don't hear anyone anymore speaking English... I do love French, and it's still the only language in which I can truly express my feelings. I love English and there's so much more I have to learn to be completely fluent...

At first I thought it would be a French-English LJ, then I realised all the peeps who might read it understood English, and none of them understood French. An LJ is, by essence, public, so there's no point in typing stuff that no one understands. If you want this, then write your secret diary :-)

Bla bla bla... And I always have crushes on English-speaking guys :-)

From:

Thanks for the insight :) :) I totally know what you're saying.

From:

I have to correct my last sentence : I always have crushes on American guitar players. Not picky on the kind of guitar, though.

(woohoo! Oklahoma playing!)

From:

Why am I not surprised?? ;)

From:

Can't help you there. I tend to swear in English (which is fine most of the time, but maybe I should learn to do so in French for when I'm with some English or Canadian people ;-) ) and say "Ouch!" when I get hurt.

oh man, i've done that with my screen capper too. and it's rediculous because it saves the pictures as bmps, and those are really big files. i kind of hate myself for it, but i NEED those screen caps! ...right?

Getting ready to make animated icons looking like videos? :-P
