Ep47 - How to litter your French like a ...

SPEAK LIKE A NATIVE
About this episode

There’s a topic that I haven’t really delved into and that is completely overlooked in this podcast. People may think that for a podcast whose claim is to teach you real spoken French, it’s a bit strange that I haven’t talked about that sooner. Frankly, I don’t think today’s topic is a requisite for sounding like a true French person. This episode comes from one dear listener, Oliver, he asked me to cover slang in French. And that’s what we’re going to do today. Stay tuned!

 

In this Episode

  • Why slang isn't a requisite when you want to sound like a native
  • Useful and common slang you often hear
  • One rule that creates a lot of our usual slang
