Episode Synopsis

So you're coming to France. Statistically, you're probably coming to Paris. And you don't know much beyond bonjour and merci.  This bonus episode is Camille from French Today explaining the mistakes you're probably making and teaching us how to get it right.  There's a lot of extra stuff in there too - like how you should actually tell someone you don't understand what's going on - and a little look at slang and how French is developing as a language.  Camille has been a French teacher for decades now - and it's through her audiobooks that I'm improving my own French.  If not, I recommend listening to this podcast in a quiet spot because it's most enjoyable if you repeat, repeat, repeat all the things she says.  Good luck!  *********** The Earful Tower exists thanks to support from its Patreon members.
