Je ne peux pas me marier parce qu’il y a un dinosaure dans l’église

Duolingo says I’m wrong

When I type “La buste” instead of “Le buste”

But it also told me it couldn’t get married because there was a dinosaur in the church

So I’m not really sure who to trust.

I may not be bilingual

And my accent might be bad

When I speak a foreign language

With the lessons that I’ve had.

Still I claim that I speak Turkish

On my resume at work;

I can say “My owl is well-tempered

“But my bobcat is a jerk”.

There once was a multilingual green owl

Whose temper had grown fully foul.

He said “Practice your French!”

As he pulled out a wrench

Then watched me spell “vingt” with a scowl.
