Libre à qui le souhaite de tisser ici ses propres fils avec ceux d'un blog à la trame dessinée par l'anglais et son univers. Orientés par exemple par l'histoire, l'humour, la musique ou le cinéma ses vidéos, textes, sons, illustrations -etc- viennent y prolonger les thèmes explorés en cours, et j'y publie des ressources conçues pour enrichir la pratique de la langue. S'il peut devenir outil de progression, je souhaite aussi qu'il vous procure plaisir et parfois même amusement... why not ?!

Why not + V ? <=> making a suggestion
ex : "It's Sarah's birthday... why not invite her at the restaurant ?''
This cool animation has nothing to do with English -nor schoolwork ; maybe it's not exactly your favourite kind of music, but give it a try : it might help you relax after your exams :o)
The animation music, "Comptine d'un autre été : l'après-midi", was created by a French musician, Yann Tiersen. He composed it for the film "Amélie Poulain" (2001).
