I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.

GF's alias?

I am not Tim, my mistakes are not over spelling.

Nice try, but that wasn't about spelling but conjugation.  :P

Really? Croivez is right sometimes?

Right for people like Ribéry.  :D

:secret: Since it's croire (3rd group) and not croiver (sic), it can't be. Some uneducated people use a wrong subjunctive, use it as a basis and end up with this false infinitive IIRC.

CIA says it's wrong FFS!  :lmfao:

I'm glad at least "croivez" sounds very wrong to you.  :cheers:

It's a good joke but then is it really a conjugaison mistake when the word doesn't exist at all?

I have seen it written on social networks and perhaps heard a couple of times. I would not say it's a common mistake but it happens.

Ah, la France.

More of a lumpenproletariat thing, itself not exactly really Gallic ahem.

It would be funny if that had actually happened, but the CIA probably has better things to do than learn French. :P

I would like to think our international intelligence agency knows more languages than just English.  :ph34r:

I mean I know they are Americans and all but still  :P

Yeah, the theme in chess doesn't work at all. Maybe the original Indian game made more sense?  :hmm:
