Bonjour à tous and welcome back to the podcast!

In today's episode, we're talking about something small but surprisingly life-changing. It's a little story about buying a simple object that ended up making everyday life a lot easier. And yes, it has everything to do with time in French.

You'll follow along as I share how I bought my very first watch as an adult. What I was looking for, where I went shopping, and why I finally decided it was time. (Pun intended.)

This episode is perfect for A2 French listening practice, especially if you want to feel more comfortable telling the time in French.

You'll hear natural examples of time expressions like il est dix heures, il est trois heures et demie, and il est midi moins le quart, all used in context.

We'll also explore practical vocabulary related to daily life, accessories, and those little routines that help us manage our day better.

In this episode:

• Vocabulary Expansion: Time, routines, and accessories
• Grammar Focus: How to tell the time in French in everyday situations
• Challenge: A short writing prompt to help you talk about your own habits

Bonjour à tous and welcome back to the podcast !
Today, we are travelling to Sweden for a little slice of everyday life, as usual.

In this episode, you will hear a true story that takes place during a family trip, in a place we always enjoy visiting together.

It is a small autumn tradition of ours, and even if we never plan anything special, something unexpected always seems to happen.

I will not spoil anything. You will discover it naturally as you listen.

This episode is perfect for A2 learners who want to practice listening, storytelling, and especially verbs in French that use prepositions. You will hear natural examples of verbs in French like penser à, craquer pour, or parler de, all used in a relaxed and everyday context. It is an excellent way to become more confident with these very common verbs in French.

We will also explore practical vocabulary related to the world of second-hand shops, the words you need to talk about objects, clothes, furniture, and those little surprises you can find when you least expect them.

In this episode:

• Vocabulary Expansion: useful words about second-hand shopping and everyday objects
• Grammar Focus: prepositional verbs and how to use them naturally
• Challenge: a short writing task to help you talk about your own experience
