So, what do you do with other rules that l'Académie Française comes up with? For example, there was recently a decision to drop the circonflexe in a lot of nouns, but has this actually affected the way anyone spells it, or is it a formal rule that people ignore in most contexts?

Trying to think of an interesting title, but there's only so many ways you can say "hello" before it sounds forced and unnatural... Anyway, that aside, hi everyone! My name is Laura, I'm an American college student currently studying French. I do want to expand eventually into one or even two more languages, but I don't necessarily have any plans for the near future. I'd really like to learn a language outside of the Latin alphabet! Not sure what yet, though, for now I want to focus on learning French. I'm super excited to join this community!
