No. I think he meant like the French army surrendering without warning leaving the British army surrounded at Dunkirk along with a few Frenchmen who didn't get the memo.
[Edit: Actually it was the Belgians that surrendered first. The French didn't surrender until a few days later while the evacuation was still ongoing.]
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

That didn't happen. GO back and check your facts.

I recently starting doing French lessons with my daughter. I wanted a french to english sort of passive listening, but I can't find any that I like. I can find all french, but that's not what I'm looking for. I'd like to find some audio learning type of thing that says words/phrases in one language and then the other.
Anyone know of anything like this?

Its called a dictionary

We are using a program for learning at home together. I was looking for audio I can use as well. Can't really do passive listening on a dictionary.

Try the audiobook version.

Have a look at EuroTalk Interactive[^] - I have tried one of them many years ago, and IIRC it worked.

How is this to be understood ? Have you forgotten the language after that ?

It was about 15 years or so ago - and so I can't remember how much of it I remember from them, and how much from using it!

The most interesting thing I found when learning French, is that they don't have their own word for 'Entrepreneur'.
