coeur The French word 'coeur' is used in the same way as the English word 'heart'. It is used to refer to the physical organ in our bodies, but can also be used metaphorically to refer to feelings and emotions. For example, 'avoir le coeur brisé' means 'to have a broken heart'. Just like in English, 'coeur' is also used in French to express the core or center of something. Here's how to use it: | |

ingénierie The French word 'ingénierie' translates to 'engineering' in English. It pertains to the field of applying scientific and mathematical principles to practical ends such as the design, manufacture, and operation of efficient and economical structures, machines, processes, and systems. It can be used in the same context as its English counterpart. Here's how to use it: J'étudie l'ingénierie à l'université. La tâche d'ingénierie était complexe. Ingénierie est un domaine très large.

sucre The French word for sugar is 'sucre'. It is used in the same way as in English, to refer to the sweet substance that is often added to food and drinks. It can also be used in phrases such as 'un morceau de sucre' (a cube of sugar) or 'sucre en poudre' (powdered sugar). Here's how to use it: J'aime le sucre dans mon café. Le sucre est mauvais pour les dents. La cuillère de sucre aide le médicament à descendre.

voler The French word 'voler' is used to describe the action of flying, just like in English. However, it is important to note that 'voler' can also mean 'to steal', so context is key. For example, 'L'oiseau vole dans le ciel' translates to 'The bird flies in the sky', while 'Il a volé mon vélo' means 'He stole my bike'. Here's how to use it: L'oiseau peut voler haut dans le ciel. Il a été arrêté pour avoir voler la voiture. Les avions commencent à voler après le décollage.
