| camarade de classe The term 'camarade de classe' is used the same way as the English word 'classmate'. It refers to a person who is in the same class or course at a school or college. It's commonly used in educational settings or when referring to shared experiences in school. Here's how to use it: Mon camarade de classe est intelligent. J'ai déjeuné avec un camarade de classe. Un camarade de classe a apporté des bonbons. | |
| côté The French word 'côté' translates to 'side' in English. It's often used in the French language to refer to the left or right part of a thing or place. Just like in English, it can also refer to a perspective or aspect of a situation or thing. For instance, 'De l'autre côté de la rue' means 'On the other side of the street'. Here's how to use it: La maison est juste de l'autre côté de la rue. C'est à un jet de pierre de l'autre côté du parc. Les légumes sont de l'autre côté du magasin. | |
| le long de The French word 'le long de' is used similarly to how we use 'along' in English. It denotes a position that extends over a certain line or area. For example, 'I walked along the river' translates into 'J'ai marché le long de la rivière'. It's used both spatially and temporally. Here's how to use it: Ils font une randonnée le long de la rivière. Le château est situé le long de la rivière. Il a nagé le long de la côte. | |
| téléphone The French word for 'phone' is 'téléphone'. Just like in English, it is also often shortened in casual conversation to 'tél'. The French word 'téléphone' can be used to refer both to the device you use to call someone and to the act of calling someone. For example, 'Je vais te téléphoner' means 'I am going to call you'. Here's how to use it: | |
| merci The French equivalent of the English word 'thank' is 'merci'. It's used in the same context as in English, to express gratitude or acknowledgment. It's one of the most commonly used words in French and is universally understood among French speakers. Here's how to use it: | |
