Bonjour= Bon (Good), Jour=(Day)
How is it going
= Common ca va (where Ca= It and Va= is going)
Often in French, they will say; "Good day, is it going?"
Bonjour, Ca va!
A good handle (usefull phrase) is
Je Voudrais (pronounced Jer Voo Dray)
= I would like
eg: Je Voudrais un tasse de cafe (a cup of coffee)
un verre d'eau (a glass of water)
Eau for water (pronounced Oh)
d'= of
d'eau pronouced Doh.
un verre bier (beer)
:::Saying you don't understand:::
In French you say,
"I understand you not"= Je ne vous-comprend pas
(pron: Jun voo-comprawn pa)
or alternatively "i understand not"= Je ne comprend pas
:::Do you speak english, I am pathetic!!"
In French they say "Speak you English?"
Parler (pron- Parlay)= to speak
vous=you
English=Anglais (arnglay)
Parler vous Anglais, Je suis pathetic
(swee, path-ett-eque)
::Goodbye:::
Au revoir (oh-reh-vwar) = means literally till we meet again/ (as revoir means to re-see)
:::Food:::
Ou est la restaurant= where is the restaurant
Ou=where (uw)
est=is (pron ay)
Remember in French, the last sylable is emphasized.
