  Short Review of the week Imparfait- it’ s easy! Check out the new in SLOW FRENCH 

NEWS IN SLOW FRENCH

Catherine: Nous sommes le jeudi 12 novembre 2015. Bienvenue pour un nouvel épisode de News in Slow French !

Rylan: Bonjour Catherine ! Bonjour à tous nos auditeurs !

Catherine: Dans la première partie de notre programme, nous parlerons du résultat des élections parlementaires en Birmanie qui se sont tenues le 8 novembre. Nous parlerons d’un scandale de dopage de grande ampleur impliquant les athlètes russes. Nous continuerons avec les pires feux de forêts que l’Indonésie ait connus depuis des décennies, et pour finir nous conclurons la première partie de notre programme avec la sortie la semaine dernière du 24ème James Bond : « Spectre », avec l’acteur Daniel Craig.

Rylan: Comme tu l’as sans doute deviné Catherine, je suis allé voir le film. Je dois dire que je l’ai vraiment bien aimé.

Catherine: Est-ce que tu aimes l’acteur Daniel Craig dans le rôle de James Bond Rylan ?

Rylan: Oui beaucoup. Il a incarné un James Bond très populaire depuis qu’il a commencé en 2005, et selon ce que je viens juste de lire il est appelé l’acteur de James Bond le mieux payé de tous les temps.

Catherine: Intéressant ! Mais continuons à faire les annonces pour notre programme. La seconde partie sera consacrée comme toujours à la langue et à la culture françaises. Dans la partie grammaticale du programme nous reverrons : Le Présent simple, Verbes du deuxième groupe, et nous conclurons l’épisode d’aujourd’hui avec une nouvelle expression idiomatique « Redorer son blason ».

Rylan: Très bon programme Catherine !

Catherine: Excellent, Rylan ! Si tu es prêt, que le rideau s’ouvre ! NEWS IN SLOW FRENCH

  Short Review of the week Check the easy way to learn the new negative.


Great Expo for those in Miami 
Anne Morgan's War: American Women Rebuilding France, 1917-1924

 I went last week end and I strongly encourage you to go! It was great! And in English and French. The exhibition of beautiful modern prints of vintage photographs and rare silent film footage brings to life the extraordinary work undertaken between 1917 and 1924 by 350 American women - all volunteers - who left comfortable lives in the United States to devote themselves to humanitarian aid in France.

  Short Review of the week Let’s practice again La routine
For this week I keep you up to date with what students are listening too in France
 

Sur ma route, oui
Il y a eu du move, oui
De l'aventure dans l'movie
Une vie de roots
Sur ma route, oui
Je n'compte plus les soucis
De quoi devenir fou, oui
Une vie de roots

[Pont] (x4)
Sur ma route

[Couplet 1]
Sur ma route, j'ai eu des moments de doute
J'marchais sans savoir vers où, j'étais têtu rien à foutre
Sur ma route, j'avais pas d'bagage en soute
Et, dans ma poche, pas un sou, juste la famille, entre nous
Sur ma route, y'a eu un tas d'bouchons
La vérité : j'ai souvent trébuché
Est-ce que tu sais que quand tu touches le fond
Il y a peu de gens chez qui tu peux te réfugier ?
Tu peux compter que sur tes chers parents
Parce que les amis, eux, disparaissent un par un
Oui, il m'arrive d'avoir le front au sol
Parce que Dieu est grand et, on est seul, on meurt seul

Week 7: If Pigs Could Fly - Then Chicken would have teeth! MUST READ! A LIRE

Short Review of the week 
This week instead of learning a grammar rule, I thought why not a poem!!! . A very famous one is call fall song by Paul Verlaine. During World War II lines from the poem were used to send messages to the French Resistance about the timing of the forthcoming Invasion of Normandy.!!! Pretty cool!

  Chanson d'automne (Paul Verlaine) 

Les sanglots longs

Des violons

De l'automne

Blessent mon coeur

D'une langueur

Monotone.

Tout suffocant

Et blême, quand

Sonne l'heure,

Je me souviens

Des jours anciens

Et je pleure

Et je m'en vais

Au vent mauvais

Qui m'emporte

Deçà, delà,

Pareil à la

Feuille morte.
