Episode Synopsis

The French may seem really set in their linguistic ways, but French is an evolving, changing language, like any other! It features multiple registers, from familiar to respectful, and it also has more than its share of unique slang expressions, dubbed argot. Here to explore what makes contemporary French unique is Charlie Whitesides, founder of Street French, a resource for Anglophones who want to speak French like the French do.https://street-french.teachable.com/p/swearing-like-a-parisianhttps://amzn.to/3sHGdKmWine Dine Lyon: https://www.winedinecaroline.com/french-wine-tours-retreats/lyon-french-wine-tour/Join us on Patreon: Patreon.com/parisundergroundradioFind Us OnlineWebsite: https://www.parisundergroundradio.com/navigatingthefrenchFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/parisundergroundradioInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/parisundergroundradio/Credits- Host: Emily Monaco. @Emily_in_France; Website: http://www.tomatokumato.com and http://www.emilymmonaco.comProducer: Jennifer Geraghty. @jennyphoria; Website: http://jennyphoria.comMusic CreditsÉdith Piaf - La Vie en Rose (DeliFB Lofi Remix)🎵 MSKD Sounds:↪︎https://www.instagram.com/mskd_sounds/↪︎https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRql...↪︎https://soundcloud.com/mskd_sounds🎵 DeliFB:↪︎https://www.youtube.com/c/DeliFB↪︎https://soundcloud.com/delifb↪︎https://www.instagram.com/cativo.kevin/↪︎https://twitter.com/DeliciousFBAbout UsFrom one Emily in Paris to another... just speaking French isn't enough to understand the intricacies of the locals, but it's definitely a good place to start.
