1 Oops what did I just say? The French Learning ToolBox The 7 mistakes you absolutely don t want to be making

2 Awkward? Did you say Awkward? Making (a few) mistakes when speaking in a foreign language is something completely normal. Very oeen, those mistakes are gender related (eg. le voiture instead of la voiture) or are the result of a bad conjugahon. When conversing with French nahves, your mistakes will be politely corrected and the conversahon will gently go on. However, some mistakes might interrupt the flow of the conversahon and even cause some red faces...indeed, some pronunciahon mistakes or wrong usage of a term can completely change the meaning of your sentence and create some awkward moments. Here are a few examples of very common 'gaffes' you really don't want to be making.

3 - "I m horny! " - Ummm ok, didn t know the heat had such effect on you " If you want to comment on the weather and the hot temperature, again using a literal translahon of the English I'm hot' is not a good idea Je suis chaude (for women) doesn't mean I feel hot but I am sexually aroused... The correct sentence is : J'ai chaud (for both men and women)

4 - " I m a babe! " - " Well yes you are but I was just asking you how you were " Cosmopoli French, Explore to Learn When being asked how you are, Comment ça va?, many learners tend to answer by using a literal translahon from English 'I'm good'. 'Je suis bien' which is incorrect but harmless but another answer could be 'Je suis bonne' (for women) which doesn't mean I'm good but I am sexually a]rachve. This answer will probably be followed by an awkward moment of silence.. The correct sentence is : Je vais bien ou ça va

5 - I would like an ass massage please " - I m sorry but I m gonna have to ask you to leave " Going on a holiday is definitely a Hme for relaxahon so if you decide to have a massage, make sure you properly pronounce the parts of the body you would like to get massaged. Je voudrais un massage du cou ( pronounced 'koo') meaning I would like a neck massage. If mispronounced, you could end up saying 'Je voudrais un massage du cul (pronounced 'ku' ) meaning I would like an arse massage!!!! You might just be sent home with no massage at all. The correct pronunciahon for neck is koo

6 - "I had an orgasm" - What? It was an achon movie dude!?! " We will never say it enough. Literal translahon oeen does not quite work, worse, you could be saying something very different from what you are intending to. When asked if you have enjoyed something ( Tu as aimé le film?), you should not use the verb jouir ( literal translahon for to enjoy). If you reply by saying, j'ai joui, you will probably create a very awkward silence with people wondering what kind of movie you just watched. Indeed, jouir means to climax. If you simply want to say that you enjoyed something - use the verb 'aimer. You might just want to say: Oui j'ai aimé!

7 Cosmopoli French, Explore to Learn - " I m gonna have the schmuck please" - "Maybe you should have another look at the menu " You will probably spend a lot of Hme in French restaurants and ordering your meal in French would be a nice touch to your immersion experience. For meat lovers, if you wish to try some duck make sure you pronounce it the right way or you might get an awkward smile from the waiter. 'Je vais prendre le connard means I'm gonna have the schmuck. The correct pronunciahon is: 'Je vais prendre le canard' ( i'm gonna have the duck)

8 - "I m so pregnant!" - CongratulaHons..Gary!?! " You are sicng in a beauhful restaurant Rue Montorgueil and your French friends are trying to tempt you with a beauhful Tarte TaHn but your stomach is about to explode. AEer trying to put together your sentence in your head, you proudly look at your friends and say Je suis plein(e) (I am full). Although everyone will smile at you, understanding what you mean, you will feel as if you had said something wrong. Guess what? You did! Etre pleine means to be pregnant but this expression is only used to talk about animal pregnancy. To say I'm full you may want to use : Je n ai plus faim (I'm not hungry anymore) Je suis calee ( I'm full - slang)

9 Cosmopoli French, Explore to Learn - "Your jam is delicious, you probably haven t used any condoms! " - Ummm..we surely have a very different recipe." Do you like your food without preservahves? Well, before going shopping or heading to a restaurant, remember not to use the word 'preservahf' as you will be asking for food without condoms. Oups! To avoid any embarrassing moments, You probably want to ask for food sans conservateurs! Oops.
