Frenchy Hour Stories

Dear French learners,

Listen, read and learn French for real with your brand new series : Frenchy Hour Stories (previously l'Instant Frenchy).

Dialogs, short stories, audio to discover idioms, slang, spoken French... and a bit of French humor (at least, mine). Because French doesn't need to be boring !

Ideal for Intermediate and advanced learners (B1+ and above).

Today, this episode is a bit special as I'm sharing with you, in a more natural flow, my thoughts about a book I quite enjoyed :

Le cœur synthétique, Cholé Delaume.

As I talk about why I enjoyed reading it, I share some insight about the author's life (who had quite a life as you will hear along) and some thoughts about how women are considered when they age... Spoiler : aging is a gift and no, I do not like les "crèmes raffermissantes" !

Hope you enjoy this episode, which is a bit of a cliff-hanging feeling as this is a half-written one, which should leave you with a feeling of sharing a conversation with a friend, from your couch. So, grab your cup of coffee, (because it's way longer than usual) and listen along !

Today, because it is spring, we will focus on the word "lapin" and see how we can use it in various situations...

You may want to think twice when you offer a "patte de lapin" to your dear friend, because some people are scared of spiders, while others are scared of... bunnies ;)
