So You’ve Been Watching The French Election Huh? Here Are 7 French Words/Phrases To Subtly Indicate To Your Friends You’re Better At Culture Than Them.
- Macaroon-
This one is an excellent word because it sounds like A Manual Macron. Perhaps he should start a Macaroon company. Oh well, anyway don’t call A Manual a macaroon, he hates it.
2.Croissant-
Order this treat with a lisp, so your friends know not to hang out with you anymore.
3.Passer That La Cigarette-
Perhaps my conjugations are not quite correct but I believe this roughly translates to “pass that the cigarette”
4.Pain Au Chocolate-
Not pain of the chocolate. Just a little croissant with chocolate in it.
5.Absinthe-
The national drink of France, or so I say! This will be important when your candidate has lost and its time to get hammered at the local cafe.
6.Fries-
In France it is not polite to be so nationalistic with your food.
7.Cafe-
This may be a bit confusing for you, American. If you want a coffee you will have to go to a cafe. Then you will order a Cafe. When the Cafe comes you will ask why is it so small. They will tell you its an espresso. You will say I did not order expresso. They will say obviously not because its espresso, please leave France immediately.
There you go! I hope now I have given you all the French knowledge you could have ever wanted or hoped for. Now go show your friends how much you know, jackass.
