What’s New at Lawless French?

Les bises à fond

Getting friendly with the French (and many other Europeans) means getting comfortable with les bises. 💋 These not-quite-cheek-not-quite-air kisses are an essential part of French culture, so being prepared to give and receive them is vital. Today's issue of Lawless French à fond takes an in-depth look at les bises: what they are, when and how to do them, and more.

Avoir un cheveu sur la langue

Avoir un cheveu sur la langue
Learn how to use the French idiom avoir un cheveu sur la langue to describe a certain type of pronunciation.

What Is Fluency?

What is fluency?There’s no secret recipe for fluency; indeed, it’s difficult to even find consensus on what "fluency" actually means. Is it the ability to have a conversation, or language proficiency equivalent to that of a native speaker?

Bonne fête !

Bonne fête !
Spread holiday cheer and good wishes with the French expression bonne fête.
