NO REGRET
Dear Teachers,
1. That man said that he learnt a good lesson from that movie is : love with all your heart and soul, and never say regret.
- Is this natural to say?
Thanks very much to Teachers,
Stevenukd.

«That man said that he learnt a good lesson from that movie is : love with all your heart and soul, and never say regret.»
Although I am sure there are better ways of saying this, here's my try:
«He said that he had learned ("learned" happens before "said") a good lesson from that movie: one should love with all their heart and soul and never regret.»

Hi guys,
1. That man said that he learnt a good lesson from that movie is : love with all your heart and soul, and never say regret.
- Is this natural to say? Basically, yes. There's really not much wrong with this.

"never say 'regret' / 'sorry" vs. "never regret" - The former somehow sounds poetic to me. I like it better than the latter. However, could the addition of the word say introduce a subtle message that "even if you think of 'sorry' or 'regret', don't say it." Oh boy! I've just destroyed the beautiful image in my mind! Could anybody help restore / rescue it for me?

Hi,
I assume that you speak French. Have you heard this much-loved and inspirational song by the great French singer, Edith Piaf?
Clive
Non, je ne regrette rien.
Non ! Rien de rien
Non ! Je ne regrette rien
Ni le bien qu'on m'a fait
Ni le mal tout ça m'est bien égal !
Non ! Rien de rien
Non ! Je ne regrette rien
C'est payé,

Dear Clive,
Thank you for sharing with me. It is very inspirational. I downloaded the song from YouTube and really love the melody. Indeed! No regret! Past is past! Start over, move on, and enjoy what is ahead of us as long as we still have each other. Let's walk together.

Clive:
«I think the idea is 'never put yourself in a position which you have to regret anything.»
Do you think it applies to both "regret" and "say regret"? I think both "regret" and "say regret" bear the meaning of not regretting even is the the situation does deserve it! And I am sure Edith Piaf's song says the same...
BTW, Edith Piaf sang this also in English!
