What's the 3 best French phrases to learn?

Answer 1

Pardon (pardawng): Sorry, as in when you bump into someone, need to push past them, etc

S'il vous plait (seel voo play): Please, as in "un café, s'il vous plait", can also be used to attract someone's attention

Merci beaucoup (mersee bowkoo): Thankyou very much

As in most places, being polite is the most useful thing you can learn - appropriate use of these phrases will get you further than knowing hundreds of other words without these.

Answer 9

If you are going to France, Try to speak as much as you can, even if they speak a little English, They really appreciate it - I had my translation dictionary and I spoke more French than I thought I could (I honestly knew about three words before I went)

But if you're not good with the language try these (for laziness!);

Can you tell me where a toilet is Please? (Pouvez-vous me dire où une toilette veuillez être ?)

Sorry I only speak English. (Désolé je parle seulement anglais.)

Do you speak english? (Vous parlez anglais?)

Answer 10

Je ne parle pas francais. (I don't speak French.)
Parlez-vous anglais? (Do you speak English?)
Je ne comprends pas. (I don't understand.)

Those are the more useful phrases for those who don't speak French.
