How old was your french I have a 4 month old French
bulldog. I was wondering if
any other owners could tell me
how old their Frenchie was
when they started climbing up
and going down the stairs.
He's tall enough to go up them
now, but he's still too short
to go down without hurting
himself. Is there any reason I
should be worried about him
using the stairs? I know that
these dogs have a lot of
hip/leg health issues.

My 5 month old frenchie just started to go down stairs 2 weeks ago. She would go up, but not down. I would put her paws on the first step and call her down, she eventually got it! I know that jumping and climbing should be limited, but I think its important for her to be able to get around on her own. The only way for her to get outside, is down stairs. She hops down slowly, this seems to stop her chest from touching the stairs. Good luck |

How do you think English would When changed it added new
words such as Old French =
stomach, Old English = gut,
Old French = mucus, Old
English = snot. Do you think
another language would have
influenced or it would have
stayed the same as it was?
Also adding of other language
such as Latin and Greek.

English of course has up to 40% of its vocabulary from French and also from Latin. It is a Germanic language though and if you have a look at Old English, you can see just how much English has changed over the last millenium. Of course you have Greek and not to mention the fact English is an extremely flexible language, as in it can absorb words from other languages. Take for example the word 'oversee'. It could also be 'overlook' in native English. However, via French there is another word namely 'supervise' and not to mention 'survey'. These ultimately derive from Latin. Over, super and sur mean above respectively and see, look, vise, "vey" relate to sight or vision. Also note how English has given a new meaning for survey, though it still can mean oversee. My guess that if the Normans hadn't invaded, English wouldn't be the internationally reknowned language as it is known now. It'd be like a German-Scandinavian mix. In the following sentence alone, there are words from many language sources. - the article 'the' has Germanic origins - typhoon comes from Cantonese 'dai foong' (big wind) - grand, caused, people, resulted come from French and I'm sure ill is scandinavian. Well you get my point. "The grand typhoon caused many people to fall ill due to the floods which resulted." |
