Hello French

New Year’s resolutions à la française 🇫🇷✨  Instead of specific resolutions, I personally prefer embracing intentions—like letting go of anything that doesn’t serve me. It takes the pressure off keeping resolutions and helps me start the year on a low-key, positive note. What are your thoughts (🇫🇷tes pensées) about New Year’s resolutions? Are they important to you, or do you have more of an “I don’t care” attitude? Ways to say “I don’t care” in French from slang, informal to more formal: 🇫🇷🤷‍♀️ rien à foutre = not give a f*ck s’en foutre = to not give a f*ck s’en ficher = to not care ça m’est égal = It’s all the same to me n’en avoir rien à faire = to have nothing to do with it bof = meh peu importe = it doesn’t matter Wearing AMI Paris (🇫🇷vêtements / clothes) & @Sézane (🇫🇷accessoires / accessories) . . . #French #LearnFrench #FrenchSlang #FrenchPhrases #NewYear #Resolutions #TikTokPartner

Important French news alert ❗Hugh Grant—oui, THE Hugh Grant—speaks French! And his French is actually not bad (🇫🇷pas mal). 🙌 He speaks very well (🇫🇷il parle très bien), but I spotted 3 tiny mistakes he made: 👀 Mistake 1️⃣ –“J’ai dit” (I said) should have been “Je lui ai dit” (I told him). Why? Because Hugh is referring to what he said to his friend. The word “lui” is a third-person singular indirect object pronoun—it means “to him, to her, to them.” Mistake 2️⃣ –”Et il a dit” (and he said) should have been “Et il m’a dit” (and he said to me). “M’” is an indirect object pronoun, meaning “to me.” Same reason as above! Mistake 3️⃣ –“À côté de moi” (next to me) should have been “à côté de chez moi” (next to my home/house). Without “chez,” it sounds like the house was literally right next to him—not near his actual home. 💡Reminder! Being understood is the top priority when speaking French, and I perfectly understood what Hugh was saying. As a French teacher, though, I’m just being nit picky. 😉 I liked Hugh Grant before, but I adore him even more now that I know how good his French is! Hugh, I’d love to speak French (🇫🇷parler le français) with you! 😊 Interested in improving your French? My French language resources dive into all the must-know details of modern spoken French.

Boost your French pronunciation skills with this one thing! 🇫🇷🗣️ Comment “FRENCH” to receive a link to my Hello Pronunciation guide—a wonderful resource for beginners and advanced learners alike! Featuring in-depth explanations and interactive audio recordings of me pronouncing hundreds of French phrases, it will help you form the sounds of modern spoken French with more ease. 🇫🇷📕🔊 I get it—French pronunciation is hard! But here’s a small tip that can help you sound more like a native speaker: 🇫🇷LES LIAISONS 💡What are liaisons? A phenomenon when the final consonant of a word that’s usually silent is pronounced and linked to the next word if it starts with a vowel sound. S transforms into a Z sound when connected to a vowel. Some examples: 🇫🇷 les arbres = the trees 🌳 les enfants = the kids 🧑‍🧒 les ami.es = the friends 👯‍♀️ les oranges = the oranges 🍊 les *hôtels = the hotels 🏨 *While H isn’t a vowel, we do the liaison here. I explain why in my Hello Pronunciation Guide! 👉Save this post for future practice! . . . #French #LearnFrench #FrenchLanguage #FrenchLesson #FrenchPronunciation #Français #France #Liaisons

What are your thoughts? 💬 🇫🇷French health vocabulary recap: 🏃‍♀️ –des protéines = protein –être en forme = to be in shape/healthy –la taille = height –le poids = weight –un pas = a step –la musculation (”la muscu” shortened version) = weight training –manger = to eat –se reposer = to rest –le sommeil = sleep This video is a great way to sharpen your French listening skills—save it for future practice!

What’s la galette des rois?? 👑A delicious French tradition! It’s the beginning of the Epiphany (🇫🇷l’épiphanie) season, and in France we celebrate with a unique pastry called la galette des rois—a king cake. This decadent pastry is filled with almond cream (🇫🇷la frangipane) and made with layers of buttery puff pastry (🇫🇷la pâte feuilletée). 🔎 Hidden inside the galette is a fève, a small secret charm, often made in ceramic. Whoever finds it becomes the king (🇫🇷le roi) or queen (🇫🇷la reine) for the day, and gets to wear a crown. The youngest person in the group usually hides under the table to ensure the slices (🇫🇷les parts) are distributed fairly by naming the recipient of each piece. You’ll find galettes des rois in French bakeries throughout the month of January (🇫🇷janvier). They’re an indulgent way to embrace French culinary traditions, and maybe even be crowned for a day! ✨ 👉Have you tried a galette des rois before? If so, who found the fève? 🇫🇷French vocabulary recap: une galette des rois = a king cake la pâte feuilletée = puff pastry la frangipane = almond mixture/cream la fève = the charm le roi = the king la reine = the queen la couronne = the crown une boulangerie = a bakery janvier = January . . #French #France #Paris #GaletteDesRois #KingCake #FrenchFood #FrenchCuisine
