A simple thank you

Thanks Céline for yet another well thought out exercise.   I really appreciate the rich, diversified vocabulary with so many roots that are common to similar English words.  The recognition that approximately 40% of French words are the same or almost the same has allowed me to expand my French vocabulary.  There are at least a dozen examples in this story.  Sometimes, I just guess by constructing an unknown French word from an English word.  It mostly works!  Best wishes.
