pompiers The French word 'pompiers' is used to refer to firefighters. It is both singular and plural, meaning it can be used to refer to one firefighter('pompier') or more than one('pompiers'). The word is masculine and must follow the gender agreement rules when using adjectives or past participles. Here's how to use it: Les pompiers sont trĂšs courageux. J'aimerais devenir pompier. L'appel des pompiers est important lors d'un incendie.

Volleyball The word 'Volley-ball' in French is used exactly as 'volleyball' is used in English. It refers to a team sport where two teams, each consisting of six players, hit a ball across a net. The word is often used in the context of sports, physical education, and recreation. Here's how to use it: Le volleyball est un sport populaire en France. J'aime jouer au volleyball le weekend. Le terrain de volleyball est sableux.

avoir The French verb 'avoir' corresponds to the English verb 'have'. However, 'avoir' is frequently used where 'be' is used in English as an auxiliary verb in various tenses and in expressions such as 'avoir faim' (to be hungry) and 'avoir besoin de' (to need). Here's how to use it: Vous avez mon livre. Il a raison. Ils ont peur.

fourgonnette The French word 'fourgonnette' is used to refer to a small vehicle, closed at the back, used for transporting goods or people, similar to what 'van' means in English. It can be used in a variety of contexts, but it's important to note that in some cases, particularly in Canada, the term 'minivan' can also be used. Here's how to use it: J'aimerais acheter une fourgonnette. La fourgonnette de mon pÚre est trÚs confortable. Nous devons réparer la fourgonnette.

café The word 'café' in French is used to refer to a hot beverage made from roasted coffee beans, just as in English. It can also refer to a business (like a café or coffeehouse) where people go to socialize and consume coffee and other refreshments. The usage depends on the context. Here's how to use it: J'adore aller au café du coin. Elle a commandé un café au lait. Le café est ouvert jusqu'à minuit.
