Some differences between indian and american culture:

  • the houses are much smaller and basically shacks in india
  • there are out houses where you have to go to the bathroom in india
  • the class room in india is the size of a walk in closet with many kids and chaos 
  • the police are not viewed as helping the citizens

La Marseillaise 
by 
Claude-Joseph Rouget de Lisle. 

Allons enfants de la patrie, 
Le jour de gloire est arriv? 
Contre nous de la tyrannie 
L'?tendard sanglant est lev? 
Entendez vous dans les campagnes, 
Mugir ces f?roces soldats? 
Ils viennent jusque dans nos bras 
Egorger nos fils, nos compagnes! 

Refrain 

Aux armes, citoyens! 
Formez vos bataillons! 
Marchons! Marchons! 
Qu'un sang impur 
Abreuve nos sillons! 

Amour sacr? de la patrie, 
Conduis, soutiens nos bras vengeurs! 
Libert?, Libert? cherie, 
Combats avec tes defenseurs! 
Sous nos drapeaux, que la victoire 
Accoure ? tes males accents! 
Que tes ennemis expirants 
Voient ton triomphe et notre gloire! 

Refrain 

Nous entrerons dans la carri?re 
Quand nos ain?s n'y seront plus; 
Nous y trouverons leur poussi?re 
Et la trace de leurs vertus. 
Bien moins jaloux de leur survivre 
Que de partager leur cercueil, 
Nous aurons le sublime orgueil 
De les venger ou de les suivre! 

Refrain

English: 

Ye sons of France, awake to glory! 

Hark! Hark! the people bid you rise! 

Your children, wives, and grandsires hoary 

Behold their tears and hear their cries! 

(repeat) 

Shall hateful tyrants, mischief breeding, 

With hireling hosts a ruffian band 

Affright and desolate the land 

While peace and liberty lie bleeding? 


CHORUS 

To arms, to arms, ye brave! 

Th'avenging sword unsheathe! 

March on, march on, all hearts resolved 

On liberty or death. 


Oh liberty can man resign thee, 

Once having felt thy gen'rous flame? 

Can dungeons, bolts, and bar confine thee? 

Or whips thy noble spirit tame? 

(repeat) 

Too long the world has wept bewailing 

That falsehood's dagger tyrants wield; 

But freedom is our sword and shield 

And all their arts are unavailing. 


CHORUS

review #2

We did not have our test today because the link mr schtick gave us to study didn't let us open it. So during class we got to open this link and start to study. We are able to complete our blog in class which was helpful and we basically had a free mod so we could get to studying and blogging. I feel like this will be a hard test so i need to study a lot so my grade goes up.
