A day in French - 39 - Wild

SPEAK LIKE A NATIVE
About this episode

Today’s story was inspired by some program my partner listened to at the radio. Since I talked about weird French events, like the bizarre and let’s admit it, quite ghastly Christmas menu we covered in episode 21 of "A day in French", it will not come as a surprise that I cover this strange event.

The grammar focus today will be geared towards A2 and B1. You’ll be able to review or learn how to create adverbs.

To get everything, head over to frenchblabla.org to download the study guide where you’ll find the transcription, the grammar focus and the vocabulary.

There’s also a free audio training waiting for you on the homepage. You’ll learn my best tips to sound like a native.
