You can get really good deals, you know, like old books, jewelry, or art objects.</p><p>C: Great, I love rummaging! It's like a garage sale.</p><p>N: Exactly! Look, over there, they're selling fresh fruits and vegetables.</p><p>C: Oh, and there, a vintage clothing stand! I really like the style.</p><p>N: You know, you have to haggle here.

C'est comme une chasse au tr&#233;sor pour adultes ! <em><strong>un vide-grenier</strong></em> = <em>a garage sale.</em> Moins formel qu'une brocante, mais tout aussi amusant pour trouver des objets uniques.&nbsp;</p><p><em><strong>faire des affaires </strong></em>&#10024; = r&#233;aliser de bonnes transactions = <em>get good deals.</em> C'est le mantra de tout <strong>chineur</strong> (bargain hunters) ! And your ticket to sounding like a savvy shopper in French. "En faisant des affaires, j'ai &#233;conomis&#233; une fortune." (<em>By getting good deals, I saved a fortune.</em>)</p><p><em><strong>chiner</strong></em> = <em>to rummage, to hunt for second-hand items.</em> A fancy word for rummaging through old junk.</p>

du Jour</h3><p>Gabin: Tu serais partante &#10026; pour un match de tennis cet apr&#232;s-midi ? Je viens d'acheter une nouvelle raquette Wilson haut de gamme &#10026;, et du coup, j'ai envie de la tester.</p><p>Margot: Ah ouais, pourquoi pas ? &#199;a fait un moment que je n'ai pas jou&#233;, mais je me d&#233;brouille pas mal.</p><p>Gabin: Tu sais, je ne voudrais pas te d&#233;courager, mais je suis plut&#244;t fort. Je m'entra&#238;ne trois fois par semaine avec un coach personnel. Du coup, ce serait peut-&#234;tre mieux si on faisait juste quelques &#233;changes d&#233;contract&#233;s &#10026;.</p><p>Margot: T'inqui&#232;te pas pour moi. J'ai fait pas mal de tournois quand j'&#233;tais plus jeune. Le niveau, je connais.</p><p>Gabin: Non mais vraiment, mon revers lift&#233; &#10026; est redoutable, et mon service peut atteindre 180 km/h. Je ne voudrais pas que tu te sentes d&#233;pass&#233;e sur le court.</p><p>Margot: &#201;coute, tu commences &#224; &#234;tre vraiment pesant &#10026; avec tes vantardises. Si t'es si fort que &#231;a, prouve-le sur le terrain au lieu de te la raconter &#10026;. Du coup, on se retrouve &#224; 15h ?</p><p>Gabin: D'accord, d'accord. Mais ne viens pas te plaindre apr&#232;s si je te mets une racl&#233;e &#10026;. J'ai m&#234;me particip&#233; &#224; des tournois r&#233;gionaux l'ann&#233;e derni&#232;re.</p><p>Margot: Parfait. Au fait, j'ai oubli&#233; de te dire - j'ai &#233;t&#233; class&#233;e num&#233;ro 3 r&#233;gionale il y a deux ans. Du coup, &#231;a devrait &#234;tre un match int&#233;ressant. &#192; tout &#224; l'heure, champion !</p><p>&#9825; &#120131;&#120154;&#120156;&#120150; &#120147;&#120150;&#120157;&#120160;&#120168; &#128071;</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!tKKz!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F52abbea6-5c6b-4699-846e-bf01e514654a_1456x98.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!tKKz!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F52abbea6-5c6b-4699-846e-bf01e514654a_1456x98.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!tKKz!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F52abbea6-5c6b-4699-846e-bf01e514654a_1456x98.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!tKKz!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F52abbea6-5c6b-4699-846e-bf01e514654a_1456x98.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!tKKz!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F52abbea6-5c6b-4699-846e-bf01e514654a_1456x98.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!tKKz!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F52abbea6-5c6b-4699-846e-bf01e514654a_1456x98.png" width="1456" height="98" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/52abbea6-5c6b-4699-846e-bf01e514654a_1456x98.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:98,&quot;width&quot;:1456,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:28148,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image/png&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" title="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!tKKz!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F52abbea6-5c6b-4699-846e-bf01e514654a_1456x98.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!tKKz!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F52abbea6-5c6b-4699-846e-bf01e514654a_1456x98.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!tKKz!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F52abbea6-5c6b-4699-846e-bf01e514654a_1456x98.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!tKKz!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F52abbea6-5c6b-4699-846e-bf01e514654a_1456x98.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div></div></div></a></figure></div><h3>&#10026; <strong>Notes</strong></h3><p><strong>&#234;tre partante</strong> &#10024;&#10024;= <em>vouloir participer</em> = to be up for something. <strong>&#8221;Chui chaud&#8221;</strong> = another version of the same thing = I&#8217;m down. &#8220;Je suis toujours partante pour une partie de p&#233;tanque !"</p><p><strong>haut de gamme</strong> </p>

du Jour</h3><p>Maxime: T'as vu les derni&#232;res nouvelles de Hong Kong? C'est vraiment la gal&#232;re l&#224;-bas avec toutes ces manifestations. Du coup, je me demande si la Chine va continuer &#224; resserrer son emprise.</p><p>&#201;va: Franchement, c'est pas gagn&#233; &#10026; pour les manifestants. La situation devient de plus en plus tendue. Le gouvernement chinois ne veut absolument pas l&#226;cher prise &#10026;, et peu importe ce que dit la communaut&#233; internationale.</p><p>Maxime: Tu sais, je trouve que c'est con de penser que la r&#233;pression va r&#233;soudre quoi que ce soit. Les jeunes Hong Kongais ne vont pas simplement abandonner leur combat pour la d&#233;mocratie.</p><p>&#201;va: Certes, mais la Chine consid&#232;re que c'est une question de souverainet&#233; nationale. Ils voient toute intervention &#233;trang&#232;re comme une ing&#233;rence &#10026; dans leurs affaires int&#233;rieures.</p><p>Maxime: Et Taiwan dans tout &#231;a? Si j'&#233;tais &#224; leur place, je serais vraiment inquiet de voir comment la situation &#233;volue &#224; Hong Kong.</p><p>&#201;va: En effet, &#231;a doit &#234;tre flippant &#10026;. D'ailleurs, j'ai lu que beaucoup de Ta&#239;wanais regardent la situation &#224; Hong Kong comme un avertissement de ce qui pourrait leur arriver.</p><p>Maxime: Tu penses que la Chine oserait vraiment envahir Taiwan?</p><p>&#201;va: C'est compliqu&#233;... La Chine consid&#232;re Taiwan comme une province rebelle, mais une invasion d&#233;clencherait probablement un conflit international majeur. Les &#201;tats-Unis ne resteraient pas les bras crois&#233;s &#10026;.</p><p>Maxime: En m&#234;me temps, regarde ce qui se passe avec l'influence grandissante de la Chine dans la r&#233;gion. Ils construisent des &#238;les artificielles, modernisent leur arm&#233;e... je me dis que c'est peut-&#234;tre juste une question de temps.</p><p>&#201;va: Peut-&#234;tre, mais la r&#233;sistance serait f&#233;roce.

C'est tellement terre-&#224;-terre &#10026; et &#231;a a tellement de bienfaits pour la sant&#233; mentale et physique.</p><p>Romane : Oh, regarde ces tomates ! Elles sont &#233;normes. Tu dois vraiment avoir la main verte.</p><p>Noah : Merci, mais parfois, c'est la lose &#10026;. Tu plantes, tu arroses, et puis rien ne pousse. Ou pire, des insectes d&#233;vorent tout. Alors, je reste modeste. Comme on dit, "l'orgueil pr&#233;c&#232;de la chute" &#10026;.</p><p>Romane : C'est vrai. Mais tout semble si paisible ici. Je comprends pourquoi tu aimes passer du temps dans ce coin.</p><p>Noah : Exactement ! Mais cette ann&#233;e, j'ai de grands espoirs pour la r&#233;colte. Enfin, je ne veux pas trop m'emballer non plus. Parfois, quand tu penses que &#231;a va pas aller &#10026;, la nature te surprend.</p><p>Romane : C'est fascinant. Et cette serre ?</p><p>Noah : Ah, la serre ! C'est mon petit paradis. C'est l&#224; que je cultive mes plantes les plus d&#233;licates. Mais, comme partout, il y a des d&#233;fis.</p><p>Romane : Mais avec ton d&#233;vouement, je suis s&#251;re que tu r&#233;ussiras.</p><p>&#9825; &#120131;&#120154;&#120156;&#120150; &#120147;&#120150;&#120157;&#120160;&#120168; &#128071;</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TjSX!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc31197fc-a6ab-4e46-adba-15874286c06d_467x114.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TjSX!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc31197fc-a6ab-4e46-adba-15874286c06d_467x114.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TjSX!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc31197fc-a6ab-4e46-adba-15874286c06d_467x114.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TjSX!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc31197fc-a6ab-4e46-adba-15874286c06d_467x114.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TjSX!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc31197fc-a6ab-4e46-adba-15874286c06d_467x114.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TjSX!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc31197fc-a6ab-4e46-adba-15874286c06d_467x114.png" width="179" height="43.69593147751606" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/c31197fc-a6ab-4e46-adba-15874286c06d_467x114.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:114,&quot;width&quot;:467,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:179,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" title="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TjSX!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc31197fc-a6ab-4e46-adba-15874286c06d_467x114.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TjSX!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc31197fc-a6ab-4e46-adba-15874286c06d_467x114.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TjSX!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc31197fc-a6ab-4e46-adba-15874286c06d_467x114.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!TjSX!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc31197fc-a6ab-4e46-adba-15874286c06d_467x114.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div></div></div></a></figure></div><h3>&#10026; <strong>Notes</strong></h3><p><em><strong>terre-&#224;-terre </strong></em>&#10024; = <em>pragmatique, r&#233;aliste</em> = grounded, down-to-earth</p><p>Ah, <em>terre-&#224;-terre</em>!

Anything else?</p><p>B: That's all, thank you.</p><p>M: It smells so good in here, I can't wait to taste all this.</p><p>B: Me neither, let's go home quickly to enjoy our finds.</p><h3>&#10026; <strong>Notes</strong></h3><p><em><strong>une envie folle</strong></em> = a crazy desire. Imagine you're standing outside a patisserie, drooling over the pastries. You'd say, "J'ai une envie folle de tous les acheter!" (<em>I have a crazy desire to buy them all!</em>). The kind of phrase you'd use when your desires are dancing the can-can!</p><p><em><strong>tomber dans le panneau </strong></em>&#10024;&#129513; = <em>to fall for it.</em> Examples are best.</p><p>&#8220;C'est &#233;poustouflant comme les masses tombent dans le panneau&#8221; (It's amazing how the masses fall for it) "J'ai achet&#233; cette montre en solde, mais je suis tomb&#233; dans le panneau, elle ne fonctionne m&#234;me pas!" (<em>I bought this watch on sale, but I fell for it; it doesn&#8217;t even work!</em>). Classic tourist trap scenario! <em><strong>mordre &#224; l'hame&#231;on </strong></em>= to take the bait</p><p><em><strong>c&#8217;est du g&#226;teau </strong></em>&#10024;= c'est facile = <em>it&#8217;s a piece of cake</em>. You're asked to babysit a cat, and it's so easy it practically takes care of itself. You'd brag, "Garder ce chat, c&#8217;est du g&#226;teau!" . Bakery themed lesson to pull this one out! (obviously).&nbsp;</p><p><em><strong>tranch&#233;</strong></em> = morceau coup&#233; dans la largeur = <em>sliced. M</em>ostly bread and ham get this treatment.&nbsp;</p><p><em><strong>Et avec ceci ?</strong></em> = Vous d&#233;sirez autre chose ? = <em>Anything else with this? / Is that all?</em><br>This is the classic line you hear at every French bakery. After ordering, they'll ask, "Et avec ceci?&#8221;. It's the polite way of saying, "Are you sure that's all you want from this temple of deliciousness?"</p><p>*&#10024; = especially &#8216;Frenchie&#8217; words/phrases you should try and use more<br>*&#129513; = &#8216;canned&#8217; expressions or phrases that are best learned as a whole, like puzzle-pieces.</p><h3><strong>The French with Am&#233;lie Bread-dex </strong>&#129360;</h3><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!2QVD!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7f426d5d-cc1c-4f54-86ac-1b56da7fe496_498x278.gif" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!2QVD!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_lossy/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7f426d5d-cc1c-4f54-86ac-1b56da7fe496_498x278.gif 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!2QVD!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_lossy/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7f426d5d-cc1c-4f54-86ac-1b56da7fe496_498x278.gif 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!2QVD!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_lossy/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7f426d5d-cc1c-4f54-86ac-1b56da7fe496_498x278.gif 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!2QVD!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_lossy/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7f426d5d-cc1c-4f54-86ac-1b56da7fe496_498x278.gif 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!2QVD!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_lossy/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7f426d5d-cc1c-4f54-86ac-1b56da7fe496_498x278.gif" width="348" height="194.26506024096386" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/7f426d5d-cc1c-4f54-86ac-1b56da7fe496_498x278.gif&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:278,&quot;width&quot;:498,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:348,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;Food Hot Dog GIF&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="Food Hot Dog GIF" title="Food Hot Dog GIF" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!2QVD!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_lossy/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7f426d5d-cc1c-4f54-86ac-1b56da7fe496_498x278.gif 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!2QVD!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_lossy/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7f426d5d-cc1c-4f54-86ac-1b56da7fe496_498x278.gif 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!2QVD!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_lossy/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7f426d5d-cc1c-4f54-86ac-1b56da7fe496_498x278.gif 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!2QVD!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_lossy/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7f426d5d-cc1c-4f54-86ac-1b56da7fe496_498x278.gif 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div></div></div></a></figure></div><p><em><strong>le pain artisanal</strong></em> - <em>artisan bread</em><br>The good stuff.

du Jour</h3><p>Malo: Je n'en reviens pas que notre entreprise soit pass&#233;e au t&#233;l&#233;travail complet. Franchement, je trouve &#231;a compl&#232;tement d&#233;mesur&#233; &#10026; comme d&#233;cision. On perd tout l'aspect social du bureau.</p><p>C&#233;lia: Tu exag&#232;res un peu, non ? Pour moi, c'est du g&#226;teau &#10026;! Je gagne deux heures par jour sans les transports, je peux bosser &#10026; en pyjama, et je suis beaucoup plus productive sans les interruptions constantes des coll&#232;gues.</p><p>Malo: Ah bon ? Moi je gal&#232;re &#224; me concentrer chez moi. Entre les travaux chez les voisins et mon chat qui n'arr&#234;te pas de r&#233;clamer de l'attention... Du coup, je me suis gourr&#233; &#10026; plusieurs fois dans mes rapports la semaine derni&#232;re.</p><p>C&#233;lia: Faut savoir s'adapter ! T'as pens&#233; &#224; am&#233;nager un vrai espace de travail ? Moi j'ai transform&#233; ma chambre d'amis en bureau, &#231;a change tout. En plus, je fais des &#233;conomies consid&#233;rables sur les repas et le carburant.</p><p>Malo: Arr&#234;te de chercher midi &#224; quatorze heures &#10026;, le bureau c'est le bureau. Si &#231;a continue comme &#231;a, on va tous devenir des ermites asociaux. Les visioconf&#233;rences ne remplaceront jamais les vraies interactions humaines.</p><p>C&#233;lia: Tu sais, je pense qu'on pourrait trouver un compromis. On pourrait avoir deux jours au bureau pour les r&#233;unions importantes et les projets d'&#233;quipe, et le reste en t&#233;l&#233;travail. &#199;a serait l'id&#233;al, non ?</p><p>Malo: Dans un monde parfait, peut-&#234;tre. Mais si on avait le choix, je pr&#233;f&#233;rerais qu'on revienne tous au bureau. Les pauses caf&#233; me manquent terriblement, et je trouve qu'on serait plus cr&#233;atifs en travaillant ensemble physiquement.</p><p>C&#233;lia: Je comprends ton point de vue, mais le monde du travail &#233;volue. Si on ne s'adapte pas maintenant, on risque de se retrouver compl&#232;tement d&#233;pass&#233;s &#10026; dans quelques ann&#233;es. Et puis, avoue que travailler en pantoufles, c'est quand m&#234;me pas mal !</p><p>&#9825; &#120131;&#120154;&#120156;&#120150; &#120147;&#120150;&#120157;&#120160;&#120168; &#128071;</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!tKKz!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F52abbea6-5c6b-4699-846e-bf01e514654a_1456x98.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!tKKz!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F52abbea6-5c6b-4699-846e-bf01e514654a_1456x98.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!tKKz!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F52abbea6-5c6b-4699-846e-bf01e514654a_1456x98.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!tKKz!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F52abbea6-5c6b-4699-846e-bf01e514654a_1456x98.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!tKKz!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F52abbea6-5c6b-4699-846e-bf01e514654a_1456x98.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!tKKz!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F52abbea6-5c6b-4699-846e-bf01e514654a_1456x98.png" width="1456" height="98" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/52abbea6-5c6b-4699-846e-bf01e514654a_1456x98.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:98,&quot;width&quot;:1456,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:28148,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image/png&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" title="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!tKKz!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F52abbea6-5c6b-4699-846e-bf01e514654a_1456x98.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!tKKz!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F52abbea6-5c6b-4699-846e-bf01e514654a_1456x98.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!tKKz!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F52abbea6-5c6b-4699-846e-bf01e514654a_1456x98.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!tKKz!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F52abbea6-5c6b-4699-846e-bf01e514654a_1456x98.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div></div></div></a></figure></div><h3>&#10026; <strong>Notes</strong></h3><p><strong>d&#233;mesur&#233;</strong> = <em>excessif</em> = excessive/over the top.

C'est si doux et vibrant.</p><p>Maxime: Oui, ok, malgr&#233; la foule, je commence &#224; appr&#233;cier l'atmosph&#232;re. C'est une exp&#233;rience unique.</p><p>Eva: Exactement !

On s'en sert quand on pense qu'on a assez de quelque chose pour r&#233;ussir. Par exemple, en cuisine: "Deux &#339;ufs, &#231;a devrait suffire pour la recette." A helpful phrase for lots of situations in life!</p><p><em><strong><a href="https://www.lawlessfrench.com/expressions/ce-nest-pas-la-mer-a-boire/">ce n'est pas la mer &#224; boire</a></strong></em> &#10024;&#129513;= <em>ce n'est pas compliqu&#233;, ce n'est pas difficile</em> = It's not that hard.<br>Cette expression est parfaite pour minimiser un d&#233;fi. Comme quand on apprend le fran&#231;ais: "Apprendre l'imparfait? Ce n'est pas la mer &#224; boire!"</p><p><em><strong>un peu grincheux</strong></em> = <em>un peu bougon, l&#233;g&#232;rement irrit&#233;</em> = a bit grumpy/cranky. Pour d&#233;crire quelqu'un qui n'est pas dans son meilleur jour.&nbsp;</p><p><em><strong>Enfin bref</strong></em> &#10024; = <em>de toute fa&#231;on, passons &#224; autre chose</em> = Anyway, moving on<br>On l'utilise pour changer de sujet ou conclure une digression. Lors d'une histoire interminable: "Enfin bref, c'est ainsi que j'ai perdu mes cl&#233;s." We&#8217;ve met it before in the Job Interview dialogue.</p><p><em><strong>&#199;a vaut le coup </strong></em>&#10024;&#129513;= <em>&#231;a en vaut la peine, &#231;a m&#233;rite l'effort</em> = It's worth it<br>Id&#233;al pour motiver quelqu'un (ou soi-m&#234;me) &#224; faire un effort pour un r&#233;sultat d&#233;sirable. Face &#224; une grande montagne &#224; escalader: "Regarde la vue, &#231;a vaut le coup!&#8221;. Used regularly to ask if something is worth it: &#8220;Est-ce que ce film vaut le coup ?&#8221;</p><p>*&#10024; = especially &#8216;Frenchie&#8217; words/phrases you should try and use more<br>*&#129513; = &#8216;canned&#8217; expressions or phrases that are best learned as a whole, like puzzle-pieces.</p><h3>Translation</h3><p>L: Do you know what time the Louvre closes today?</p><p>J: It closes at 6 PM, I think. We still have three hours.</p><p>L: Three hours, that should be enough. Do you think we should come back tomorrow to see everything?</p><p>J: Maybe, but it's not that hard. We can buy another ticket if necessary.</p><p>L: Alright, let's start with the Impressionist wing. I've heard it's beautiful.</p><p>J: Yes, and after that, we'll go see the modern art section. I love how bright and airy it is, even though it's in the basement.</p><p>L: Really? For me, it's a bit stressful with all these people. It's so crowded!</p><p>J: Ah, Maxime, you're always a bit grumpy in crowded places. Anyway, look at these paintings! Each piece seems to tell a story.</p><p>L: It's true. It's incredible to see so much history and beauty in one place. It's really worth it.</p><p>J: Absolutely, and look at the light in the Impressionist paintings. It's so soft and vibrant.</p><p>L: Yes, ok, despite the crowd, I'm starting to enjoy the atmosphere. It's a unique experience.</p><p>J: Exactly! And after seeing the modern art, we can rest at the museum caf&#233;.</p><p>L: Perfect! A little rest after all this walking will be welcome.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jJPl!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ffb9f5e9a-8638-4835-ab68-2c4a631756b8_924x169.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jJPl!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ffb9f5e9a-8638-4835-ab68-2c4a631756b8_924x169.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jJPl!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ffb9f5e9a-8638-4835-ab68-2c4a631756b8_924x169.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jJPl!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ffb9f5e9a-8638-4835-ab68-2c4a631756b8_924x169.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jJPl!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ffb9f5e9a-8638-4835-ab68-2c4a631756b8_924x169.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jJPl!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ffb9f5e9a-8638-4835-ab68-2c4a631756b8_924x169.png" width="266" height="48.65151515151515" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/fb9f5e9a-8638-4835-ab68-2c4a631756b8_924x169.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:169,&quot;width&quot;:924,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:266,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" title="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jJPl!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ffb9f5e9a-8638-4835-ab68-2c4a631756b8_924x169.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jJPl!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ffb9f5e9a-8638-4835-ab68-2c4a631756b8_924x169.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jJPl!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ffb9f5e9a-8638-4835-ab68-2c4a631756b8_924x169.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!jJPl!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ffb9f5e9a-8638-4835-ab68-2c4a631756b8_924x169.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div></div></div></a></figure></div><h3><strong>Et Am&#233;lie? &#128131;</strong></h3><p>When I find myself in crowded places like a museum, I feel like a sardine in a can&#8230; only with fabulous artworks all around me.
