Wow! I really hate you now! ;) J/k. Seriously, if you knew how dumbed-down
the education system is over here in North America, you would probably die
of shock ;) F'rex, the French teacher was unsure of what "(in)transitive"
means! :S

But maybe it is because I am much younger than you? I hope they start
teaching heavy-duty grammar soon (it got better in grade eight, the grade
for thirteen-turning-fourteen-year-olds in Canada and the U.S., the grade
from which I just graduated).
