Thanks for that - recorder set already!A quick "heads up" for anyone in the UK, Connor's Without A Trace episode (Fade Away) is on Channel 4 at 10.50 on 10th April.
Audio books are books that have been recorded and sold on CD so you can listen to them (while driving, or doing housework, for example), or as you suggested for the blind.
Audio books is interesting. Wonder if they might get him to do "The Good That Men Do" and "Kobayashi Maru."![]()
Connor's wife, Ariana, is a Francophile (they got married in France). I think she speaks French and I think she has taught him some, but I've never heard him say anything in French.
Anybody else out there know for sure?
Only other language I have heard him speak is Spanish.
I don't think he speaks Spanish. They took a vacation to Spain a couple of weeks before he attended the Seatrek convention in 2007.
He commented during one of our dinners with him that he had problems because the Spanish apparently resent Americans who expect everyone on Earth to speak English, so even if they're fluent, they won't use English when speaking to American tourists.
Ariana made an effort to speak Spanish (presumably using Spanish/English dictionary or translation device) so she got along with them better than he did.![]()

As I understand it, Ariana Navarre is her stage name. She was born, I think, in California. And I'm pretty sure she doesn't speak just a little French, she's fluent.Connor's wife, Ariana, is a Francophile (they got married in France).

i have no proofs to prove that ( i'm not a genealogist), but Ariana's name is Navarre. and, in France, Navarre is the name of an old area, located in south shared between France and Spain (that doesn't exist anymore). so we can conclude that she had some ancestor in France or Spain who immigrated in US and took the name of Navarre. so maybe she speaks a little bit french and/or spanish. in this case, she certainly learned some words to Connor.
