I think French just might be
my least favorite accent. Despite my French teacher bragging about what excellent speakers the French are, never saying um, just having fast flowing speech, when dictating in English, the ones I've done have had some serious stammering, poor enunciation, extra words, and many unexplained word choice changes, and it's all I can do not to scream and grind my teeth the moment I hear that accent.
I'd love to tell my snotty French teacher that, too.
French!

French for me too.

You must be French or something because it is
(singular)
▸ noun: the form of a word that is used to denote a singleton
▸ adjective: grammatical number category referring to a single item or unit
(plural)
▸ noun: the form of a word that is used to denote more than one
▸ adjective: grammatical number category referring to two or more items or units
pleural is a medical term, regarding the lungs....
French Ed. major
with English Ed minor and Music minor. No jobs around here in Northern Indiana, and extended family is here, so once started having kids, kind of just fell into this work. Love it, though, love using the Latin I had years ago.
Bob for French fries!!

Don't get it......what does French sounding name
nm
also had a French Canadian
very difficult... now if I ever hear a doctor with a New Zealand accent I think I will recognize it - very distinctive - have heard it only in a few movies.
Canadian Dollars- probably French ESL nm

"Faux" is French for false. - nm

The French sounding name in other words
it was not like I was a Jones or Smith, you know, simple sounding every day names and if you have worked as long as I have in this business, I have seen dictators get a chart mixed up with another, not that it happens often. That was the reason for my saying it - he could not have mistaken my dictation for a Ms. Smith or Ms. Jones....
French 1st Language dictators
My take is that you are both correct and mistaken. People with French as their mother tongue can be both challenging and reliable to transcribe in English. The challenging part is the omission of certain sounds that are normal to the English-attuned ear. The reliable part is that the differences one hears are usually SO predictable. I belive that with more info I can help you even with your specific problem.
I think Spanish and French are the worst, (sm)
and I even took French. But they have an annoying way of dropping out all recordable sound and just doing something with their lips that a recorder can't pick up at the end of some words that is very annoying.
I have enjoyed British, but every newbie should be warned about their "stop" and "full stop" for punctuation, LOL.
Autocorrect turned french!
Out of no where my autocorrect is french! Anyone know how to turn this off??
Hot dogs and homemade french fries.

Spanish, French do celebrate Christmas in USA
Middle Eastern Arabic people do not celebrate Christmas nor the Jewish people (and Chanukah comes early 12/3 this year so they should be working. Russian Christmas is in January. The Hispanic community as well as the French communities here in the USA, as I know it, certainly do celebrate Christmas. Happy Holidays To All....

I thought the French, Germans, and Russians were hairy.
Would that make them hirsutian?

Hot French bread with real butter, rasberries
with real cream, Belgian sweet dark chocolate and Fritos. It would have to be my last supper, because it would probably kill me!  Yummmmmmm.
Not much different than eating French toast with a side of bacon and scrambled eggs w/cheese. nm

I think what she means is....
Kent State had a lot of conflict when Nixon declared war and the students were rioting. They were vandalizing and burning property, fighting. They called in guardsmen. The guardsmen threw tear gas canisters into the crowd to disperse them and the crowd starting throwing them back. The guardsmen started shooting into the crowd. People are still not sure why they started shooting. I think nine people were shot, 2 died or something like that.
Anway, I see the point though. Things happen at college, does that mean you shouldnt send your kids? And if you do, are you a bad parent and deserve to be judged?
What about the parents that send their kids to school the day of the Columbine High School shooting. I guess they deserved it because they were there?
Please tell me what this means...
I have been trying to figure out for the last five days since I started frequenting this site...but what in the world does it mean when people put things like nm and sm in their posts? This is driving me NUTS!!
Not sure what that means. Can you
tell me what ME in the letter from MQ mean? Thanks.
What she means is (sm)
that DocQScribe does not count the characters that you input into the demographics screen, even if you have to do it all with nothing imported. This means that characters MTs previously were paid for -- patient name, dates of service, referring physicians' names, courtesy copy names/addresses, are not compensated. If you do a lot of little reports, that will mean a HUGE decrease in line count, whereas the impact won't be so bad if you do mostly long consults. Unfortunately most companies seem to be going this way, even the very nice company I'm working for now which has me hunting through blurred PDFs of faxes to find the patient information (I'm hanging in there because it's a new account and they say they'll have the demographics imported). At MQ and DSG DQS paid for spaces; I've heard that Accuscribe does not. The "red headers" are paid for. As you say, it's simple to check your line counts using Word or MedPen's counting program.
As lovely a platform as DQS is, the overall opinion seems to be that line counts drop dramatically when using it. I don't know if that's really always true since the second day I worked for DSG I did 1500 lines, but I know that I had to leave MQ after DQS as I never was able to make the money I felt I needed. There are still a few good companies out there, but you have to really search them out.
You know what I think this means? sm
The letter says pay rates are based upon experience, skill, and work difficulty.
This leads me to believe, in conjunction with what you are saying, that our rates will be based on the above criteria. Each MT has probably been evaluated and given some rating score or something that will determine each of our "specialized new" base pay.
What I'm anxious about is the fact SE is not mentioned. I have a feeling (JUST a feeling -- since employee was the only word used) they are doing away with SE. If so, no more quarterly bonus and the IRS perks that go along with SE status. That will make me VERY sad.
does anyone know what this means...sm
When I try to log on to DQS, I get a message that states that my user profile failed to download...anyone know anything about this?
Of course, I work for MQ, and hate to call them, cause it takes forever to get an answer to a simple question, so if anyone has any ideas, I'd appreciate it!
BTW, I have already logged out and in like a thousand times, plus restarted my computer, so that's not the problem. TIA!
it means
turn around time
sm means
that's not what it means
it means that six times he performed a heterosexual act that resulted in conception, but that doesn't make him a heterosexual.
You can love Ford but still drive a Buick on occasion.
DVI- please tell me what this means
It may be the stupidest question but what does DVI mean and that I need to have a DVT-supported footpedal? Does anyone know where I can get one and how much it may cost?
Thanks!
It means don't believe everything
you read. A bunch of overpaid suits never transcribed a day in their life. Also they put out propaganda trying to make more money by lying.
What this means
I am required to quote my charges for contract job and they ask me to
Breakdown cost by telephone call-in to a center or audio files being sent to you.
Any one knows about it?
By all means.............sm
That would be GREAT!!! *grins* 
Contact me whenever regarding this....oh, except when I'm in VEGAS in the autumn. *winks*
What it means is this
There are a few posters on this site that are really negative, think they know everything, and post nasty rude responses to other people's postings. Some of us call them "trolls" and sometimes we get caught up in trying to make them see how rude they are by posting back. It never works though, and we call that feeding the trolls, or keeping an argument going that does not lead to anything good. I guess we should try to ignore their rudeness, but it is hard sometimes. How's that? Did I explain it okay?
I think she means sm
TIA as in thanks in advance.
I think she means...
 Oops.....new here.....lol!
do you know what EMR means?
It means your medical record is all electronic. She does not need to look for another job.
n/m means
8
NM means no more and SM means some more
x
no that means that they pay 9 cpl and sm
a line is 65 characters not just a line no matter how short. "Gross lines" are when you get paid for a line no matter how short.
You are not an MT I take it? Not in this country either????
Not sure what it means
but mine says 1:17???
I think that's what the poster means.
If they can't report everything why is it that missing middle or upper class white females get much more attention and help than missing [insert race here] females who come from a family with very little money. Look at the case of Laci Peterson and the attention it got compared to an exact same case of Evelyn Hernandez and her 5-year-old son. She was a pregnant woman with very little money in her third trimester carrying a baby boy, who was reported missing just months before Laci. Her body was found in the same bay yet there was barely any attention at all given to that case. The case was never solved and in fact her son is still missing to this day and we still don't even hear much about it. I agree with the OP. Publicity helps in getting support and if the major news networks can report every single night for months and months on one case, why can't they report some of those nights on other cases? 
Being in day care is better if it means
they get eat, have clothes to wear and have a place to live. Yeah, they need mama, but they also need those other things, too.
it means to "trick out" a car (sm)
are you referring to the show? If so, it means they get a hunk of junk car and turn it into a show car, if you will. They usually put all kinds of electronics in it, like TVs, videogames, stereos, etc. Actually, a lot of silliness that is just a waste of money, BUT...that's what TV is all about, right? I hope this helps! 
I'm not a prude by any means,
do those KY "personal lubricant/warming massage-stuff" commercials turn your stomach, too? I don't know what it is about those particular commercials, I just find them particularly...um...gross!  Am I alone here?
Let's see now...it means stick it...
hmmm...stick it....gosh! I haven't been in banking for a while, so I'll have to get back to you on that. 
NM means no message. SM means see message:)
