There's no reason I can think of why AIML shouldn't be used for French. However most AIML bots start with a published brain such as ALICE and build up from it. This covers a lot of the things we get given built-in to the Forge, eg compliments and insults. Unless you can find a basic French brain you'd have to do a lot of extra work starting from scratch.

or at least manually translate all the patterns and responses from an English AIML file - they're easy enough to edit in notepad, but it could be a bit laborious if you want to make it particularly comprehensive. I believe Alice has ~41,000 patterns! but much of that is presumably to cope with basic vocabulary and typo-handling, since there's no spell-correction, parsing or Wordnet matching in AIML systems.

i havent been on here for a long time. i feel really bad. im a disgrace, to myself and my bots. Oh well at least im here now!! im going to do some serious work on my poor bots.

Hey guys! I'm new here.

Hello to you and all botkind.

Why hello, peoples

Hey guys, my bot has this problem how when there is an indication of laughter, he takes it as a command. What should I do?

Make a keyphrase for "haha". It picks up stuff like lol, rotfl, etc.

Ugh, my bot stinks. Is there any way to make it better?

Read your transcripts and just keep adding keyphrases..sooner or later the bot will talk.
