Jouno hated doing homework. The only subject he could do was gym. He thrust his pile of papers onto a desk in study and grunted with frustration. The seat creaked loudly as he slumped into it. He opened his textbook and flipped through its pages. Jouno had to find out what the difference was between Brie and american chees then describe it in French. Joy.

Jounouchi sighed deeply. The room had a hush over it as the others in study hall tried to work. The door open and everyone looked up. It was Yuugi. He smiled shyly. Quickly, he scrurried through the room to where Jouno was sitting.Yuugi sat down. "I can see you are having trouble. Personally, I am kind of good at Francais. Do you what help?" Yuugi wondered.

"Ooo-yu-i," Jou reluctantly answered.

"Um, what did you say?"

"You know, ooo-yu-i. It's French for yes. O-U-I."

Yuugi sighed. "Do you mean, oui? It's pronounced wee"

"Non, you know that's French for no, ne?" Jouno said.

Yuugi slowly rubbed his temples to ease the migraine he had just acquired. He shook his head."Jounouchi, you don't understand French, comprenda?" Yuugi said.

"Com ... comprenda? Sorry, I don't speak dog."

"Jouno! Why not tell me some words from a language you know?"

"New Yorkese?"

"No! Japanese, baka," Yuugi urged.

"Oh! Okay ... When Japanese is translated into English,oucan equalo. Like aibou= aibo, arigatou= arigato, Ryou= Ryo... etc. There is much controversy about it. I useoexcept for Ryou.

There is some random vocabulary used sometimes in these things called 'fanfictions'.
