Archive for speaking

My moms good friends nephew has came down from montreal for 2 weeks. He can speak no word of english, only simple things like, hello and yes/no. Him and I are going to a camp together for awhile.

Is there any quick way i can learn to speak or understand what he is saying to me? I got a 97% in grade 9 french, but I still can barely hear him…

help :)

This fall we are moving to Alaska from Michigan. We will be driving through Canada and plan to camp each night. I expect our first fuel stop to be near Winnipeg. We need a scheduled fuel stop every 250 miles (270max). We will camp for the night after 8-12 hours of travel. We need safe, legal spaces that are open. We have two young (they will be 6 and 2 years) children. What do you suggest?
Is it legal to camp along the road? In the north west areas the distances between fuel stops apears to be long. Does each town along the way offer fuel?

I am traveling outside the US for the first time (besides going to Mexico in kindergarden) with school. Our teacher said that most of the time we will be with a tour guide but we will have a few hours in the afternoon just wandering around. I know a little spanish and latin and a few words in italian… Will I be completely lost or do most people speak a little english? Thanks!
