Bonjour et Bonne Saint-Valentin from FRENCH ETC. (www.frenchetc.org)
Henri and Fabienne are all lovy-dovy for Valentine’s day. They use all kinds of endearing loving terms you’ll hear in the dialog. If you are interested, there is a vocab list of sexier words I invite you to download from the Vocabulary Sheets on the Web site, but you have to promise to never tell my mom it’s there. It’s called sexy-slang.
Anyway, Henri is having Fabienne for a treat for Valentines’ day. She was having coffee at Les Deux Magots when he called her. Later on that afternoon, they meet Place Vendôme, to Cartier’s quarters of high jewelry. Aside from having the dialog and its translation, the worksheet tells you a bit about Place Vendôme and Les Deux Magots. The worksheet also features a gorgeous love poem by 16th century female poet Louise Labé.
FRENCH ETC.’s podcasts teach you the latest contemporary French, the way it’s spoken on the streets of Paris and in the cafés in Nice, with authentic useful expressions you can use right away.
The worksheet is available to FRENCH ETC. members.
