not taught in schools and institutions. For example, “c’est mon trip” was something I’ve heard when among French friends but did not really know what it meant!
Now I do 🙂
My son wants to speak French, so my husband and I are looking for a French-speaking teacher for a more effective approach to his learning. I like your tip on bootstrapping the process by learning a bunch of complete phrases of everyday language, starting small and building up from there. We’ll be sure to consider your suggestion to have our son listen to simple conversations between native speakers about situations of everyday life. Thanks for this!

Amicalement,
Thank you for all your hard work. It's really helpful for me as an American learning French in Paris. I've been very discouraged because I study really hard but still can't understand very well spoken French. Your material has been eye opening for me and are really helped put my foot forward one step in the right direction!

When I listen to people speaking French in informal situations, I hear them use words like “bof” “bah” “bon bah” “euh” a lot. I never really know which of these words I should use when I speak French myself. As an English native speaker, I end up just saying “ummmm” when I am thinking of how to answer a question or respond to someone in French.

Could you give some examples of how words like “bof” “bah” and “euh” are used in informal situations?
