Thanks. =)
P.S. Extending semester = yuck.
Also, we wanted to know how to say corkscrew in French, because we needed to borrow one - mind you, this was in early Feb... Still, how do you say corkscrew in French (for future reference)?
tire-bouchon. thats why i learnt it as well.
I'm going to hazard a guess and say that bouchon means cork or stopper or something to that effect.
