serveur m. noun sɛʁ.vœʁ waiter
se lever verb sə lə.ve to stand 1
dos m. noun do back (body) 2
douleur f. noun du.lœʁ pain
1 [se lever] – “To stand” has several possible translations: “être” (to be), “être debout” (to be upright), and “se trouver.” When describing
the location of something, we would use “se trouver”. For example, “The house stands alone on the hill” = “La maison se trouve isolée sur
la colline.” In some cases, it can be translated using “se lever” such as in the sentence “The judge asked us all to stand” = “Le juge nous
demanda à tous de nous lever.” However, using “se lever” after a good night’s sleep for example is the translation of “to get up” while the
noun form of stand, such as in “to take a stand” = “prendre position.”
2 [dos] – “la colonne vertébrale” = “spine”

glace f. noun ɡlas ice

1 [rivière] – Another possible translation is “un fleuve,” which describes rivers that connect to the ocean. However, since there
are only four of these in France, “une rivière” is more commonly used.

French Word Notes
verbe m. noun vɛʁb verb 1
1 [verbe] – This is the first ‘category’ word in this dictionary. To learn a word like “verbe,” use 2-3 other words on your flashcards, along
with images. So “verbe” might be “se lever, compter, sauter...,” with pictures of standing, counting or jumping. You can do this for any
categories, like “animal,” “adjective” or “number.” Category words are handy to learn because you can re-use them to help you learn more
specific words within a given category (i.e., [picture of two people kissing] + “verb” = “to kiss”, [different picture of two people kissing]
+ “noun” = “a kiss”, etc.)

relations sexuelles f.noun ʁə.la.sjɔ̃ sεk.sɥεl sex (the act) 1
mariage m. noun ma.ʁjaʒ marriage 2
1 [relations sexuelles] – Use “la relation sexuelle” or “les relations sexuelles (pl.)” when you refer to the act itself. “Sexe” = “genitals”
or “sexuality.”
2 [mariage] – ‘Mariage’ can also be used for ‘wedding’

porter verb pɔʁ.te to wear 2
oreille f. noun o.ʁɛj ear
bague f. noun baɡ ring 3
serré adjective se.ʁe tight 4
jupe f. noun ʒyp skirt
1 [pied] – France uses the metric system, so this unit of measure doesn’t show up often in French.
2 [porter] – ‘Porter’ also means ‘to carry’
3 [bague] – There are some other words with this same meaning: “un anneau” (pl. des anneaux) is generally a solid metal ring without
jewels, and “une alliance” is a wedding ring; “engagement ring” = “une bague de fiançailles”; “The Lord Of The Rings” = ““Le Seigneur
des Anneaux.”
4 [serré] – Some other words used in similar situations: “a tight rope” = “une corde raide” or “une corde tendue” whereas “a tight situation”
= “une situation tendue.” “Difficile” and “délicate” can also be used in place of “tendue.” However, “friends who are very close (tight-knit
friends)” = “des amis très proches.”

téléphone m. noun te.le.fɔn telephone 4

pleurer verb plə.ʁe to cry
larme f. noun laʁm tear (drop)
1 [sourd] – “Un sourd-muet” = “a deaf-mute.”
2 [parents] – This word is usually used in plural to refer to one´s mother and father because “un parent” in French means a “relative.”
3 [bruyant] - When talking about “loud music” = “une musique forte” although “bruyant” means “noisy.” For example, “Le bar était
si bruyant qu’ils ne s’entendaient pas parler.” = “The bar was so loud that they couldn’t hear each other talk.” If we are talking about a
loud color, the correct translation is “criard” or “voyant.” For example, “Lots of people wear loud clothes when they go to the beach.” =
‘Beaucoup de gens portent des vêtements voyants pour aller à la plage” We can even use “tape-à-l’oeil,” which has the same meaning as
do “criard” and “voyant.”
4 [téléphone] – “Un portable” = a mobile phone
5 [bébé] – “Bébé’ is always used in the masculine form, whether the baby is male or female.

théâtre m. noun te.ɑtʁ theater 2
roi m. noun ʁwa king
aimer verb e.me to love 3
mille un card. number mil œ̃ 1001
nuit f. noun nɥi night
1 [sombre] – “Dark” can be translated as “foncé” when talking about a color. For example, “dark blue” = “bleu foncé;” It can also mean
“obscure” (when there is no light around) or “sombre.” We can also say “dans le noir.”
2 [théâtre] – The word “théâtre” is used for live representations of plays like those of Shakespeare, for example. If you refer to the place
where movies are projected, the common word is “un cinéma” or, even more commonly, just say “ciné.” i.e. “aller au ciné” = “to go to the
movies.” A more popular expression for the same idea is “se faire un ciné.”
3 [aimer] – “Être amoureux” (f. adj. amoureuse) = “to be in love.”

marcher verb maʁ.ʃe to walk
froid adjective fʁwa cold
nord m. noun nɔʁ north
ville f. noun vil town 2
pluie f. noun plɥi rain
mouillé adjective mu.je wet
gris adjective ɡʁi gray
1 [deuxième] – Note: One may use “second” when there are only two elements in a group, but this is not mandatory.
2 [ville] – “Une commune” /kɔ.myn/ is correct if you’re referring to the administrative entity (the equivalent of the term “city” in the
United States when you use it strictly to designate an administrative entity without reference to the size). If you refer to “town” as a
settlement that is larger than a village, then the correct translation is “une ville,” which is a very common word. In fact, in France,
“un village” is “une commune” of 2000 or less inhabitants while “une ville “ is “une commune” of more than 2000 inhabitants. “Une
commune” is any town (“une ville”), village (“un village”) or area that has its own council.

French Word Notes
acheter verb a.ʃø.te to buy
cadeau m. noun ka.do gift 1
vélo m. noun ve.lo bike 2
il pronoun il it 3
argent m. noun aʁ.ʒɑ̃ money 4
1 [cadeau] – The word “un présent” is also used in French and has the same meaning as it does in English.
2 [vélo] – Une bicyclette [bi.si.klɛt] can also be used although it’s slightly more formal than “vélo.” It’s roughly the equivalent of “bicycle
vs bike” in English.
3 [il] – Because all French nouns are gendered, there’s no difference between “He is big” (Il est grand) and “It is big” (Il est grand), as long
as you’re talking about a masculine object. The feminine form is “elle.” There is an impersonal form for “It’s” (as in “It’s so weird!”), which
is “C’est”. If your grammar book doesn’t cover the differences between pronouns well, check out this article: http://tinyurl.com/c-est-il-est
4 [argent] “Argent” can mean both “silver” and “money”

prix m. noun pʁi price
quatre-vingts card. number ka.trə.vɛ̃ 80
1 [habillement] – The generic term is “ habillement”/abijmɑ̃/, which describes everything that can be worn. “Un habit” is a very common
word that is synonymous with “un vêtement.” Another very common term is “prêt-à-porter,” which literally means “ready to wear” and is
often used for items found in stores and fashion magazines.
2 [magasin] – “Une boutique” [butik] is also a very common word for a shop as is “un commerce.”
3 [panneau] – “Un signe” is used for hints and hand gestures. Other possible options are “signalisation” and “un panneau (pl. des
panneaux) de signalisation” for signs on the road or billboards.
4 [ample] – “Loose” can generally be translated as “ample” when talking about clothing. “Les femmes enceintes portent souvent des robes
amples.” = “Pregnant women often wear loose dresses.” If, instead, you’d like to talk about a loose screw or a loose wheel, use “desserré.”

1 [terre] – Both “le sol” and “la terre” can be used to refer to the surface on which we walk, crawl, or fall (i.e. “tomber par terre” ). “Sol” and
“terre” can also be used to designate the ground (solid matter); another meaning of “le(s) sol(s)” is “superficial layer of the earth.” While
“la terre” is also used to refer to the planet Earth, the word “sol” cannot be used in the same way.

chaud adjective ʃo hot/warm 1
plage f. noun plaʒ beach
sable m. noun sɑbl sand
île f. noun il island
paradis m. noun pa.ʁa.di heaven 2
1 [chaud] – “Hot” and “warm” can both be translated as “chaud.” As “hot” is considered warmer than “warm,” we can translate it as “très
chaud” while “brûlant” = “scalding” and “tiède” = “lukewarm.”
2 [paradis] – “Le paradis” is the common word used in opposition to the “l’enfer” (cf. l’enfer et le paradis). However, the word “ciel” (sky)
is used to refer to heaven in other cases like in the prayer “Notre Père qui êtes aux Cieux” (sgl. “ciel”) = “Our Father who art in Heaven.”
Both translations are possible; it just depends on the individual situation

bon marché – hôtel – sept – jour

plastique – lit
©2014 Chris Jones

French Word Notes
bon marché adjective bɔ̃ maʁ.ʃe cheap 1
hôtel m. noun o.tɛl hotel 2
sept card. number sɛt 7
jour m. noun ʒuʁ day 3
plastique m. noun plas.tik plastic
lit m. noun li bed
1 [bon marché] – Literal translation: “Good value.”

2 [hôtel] – The /H/ at the beginning of “hôtel” is known as an “H muet” (mute H) as opposed to the “H aspiré” (aspirated H). All /H/s are
silent in French, but the H muet allows for liaison (So the /N/ in “un hôtel” isn’t silent; the phrase is pronounced /ɛ_̃ no.tɛl/). The H aspiré,
in contrast, shows up in loan words and doesn’t allow for liaison (so “un haïku” is pronounced /ɛ̃ aj.ku/). In the written language, H muet
is treated as if it were a vowel, so you’ll write “l’hôtel” (the hotel) instead of “le hôtel,” but you’ll write “le haïku,” rather than “l’haïku.”
Keeping track of which H is in which word is a good candidate for mnemonics (All ‘H aspiré’ words can be associated with hurricane-
force winds, whereas all ‘H muet’ words can be associated with a sad Parisian mime, for instance).
3 [jour] – Use “la journée” to emphasize the duration of an event or state. For example, “J’ai passée toute la journée au bureau” = “I spent
the whole day at the office.”

palais de justice – avocat – calme – voix

milliard – dollar – contrat – signer

French Word Notes
palais de justice m. noun pa.lɛ də ʒys.tis court 1
avocat m. noun a.vo.ka lawyer
calme adjective kalm quiet 2
voix f. noun vwa voice
milliard m. noun mi.ljaʁ billion
dollar m. noun do.laʁ dollar
contrat m. noun kɔ̃.tʁa contract
signer verb si.ɲe to sign
1 [palais de justice] – “Un palais de justice” refers to the building in which the law is administered. The word “un tribunal” (pl. “les
tribunaux”) is commonly used to designate both the building and the judicial authority. Less commonly used is “La Cour”(with capital C),
which corresponds to the people in charge of justice in the “palais de justice” (like the magistrates, for example). An example of the use
of this is in “La Cour de justice de l’Union Européenne” (The magistrates of the EU).
2 [ calme] – “Quiet” can also be translated as “silencieux” if it is used to mean “not noisy.” For example, during a tennis competition, the
commentator could say, “Quiet, please!” = “Silence s’il vous plaît!”

1 [soir] – Use the word “la soirée” when the emphasis is on the duration of the evening.
2 [maison] – “Maison” is the most commonly used expression. However, “chez soi” and “à la maison,” which both mean “at home” are
equally common. “Le foyer” is sometimes used to refer to a family unit. i.e. “le foyer familial” = the marital home.

médecin m. noun med.sɛ̃ doctor 3
pousser verb pu.se to push
aiguille f. noun ɛ.ɡɥij needle
médicament m. noun me.di.ka.mɑ̃ medicine 4
vivant adjective vi.vɑ̃ alive
1 [cœur] – The “oe” in coeur is traditionally written as one character as follows: œ.

2 [maladie] – The word “une infection” is also commonly used, as it is in English, when talking about a disease caused by germs or
bacteria.
3 [médecin] – The term “médecin” is a bit more formal than “docteur,” which is used very often. “Un médecin” is used for someone who
has obtained the title of doctor in medicine, but a familiar term is “un toubib.” In contrast, “un docteur” refers to anyone who has obtained
“un doctorat” which is the equivalent of a Ph.D (or M.D.) and can also be obtained in fields other than medicine such as in law.
4 [médicament] – When referring to the medication we drink or swallow in order to cure an illness, we used “un/les médicament(s),” but
“la médecine” is used when talking about the treatment of illness and injuries by doctors and nurses.

chef m. noun ʃɛf manager 2
emploi m. noun ɑ̃.plwa job 3
oui adverb wiː yes
heureux adjective oeʁø; øz happy 4
homme m. noun ɔm man
1 [papier] – The word “une feuille” = “sheet of paper” can also be used.
2 [chef] – When talking about the manager of a sales department, “un chef” = “a leader.” Using “un chef” to refer to “a boss” is very
popular too but in a less formal style (the abrievation “PDG” = “président directeur général” is often used like CEO in the United States).
“Un patron” means the same as “un chef.”
3 [emploi] – “Un job” is commonly used but is less formal than “un emploi” = “employment.”
4 [heureux] – “Happy birthday” = “Joyeux anniversaire,” but “content” is the translation for “glad,” which is a milder term than “happy.”
“Happy” is closer to “joyful” (“joyeux”) in meaning.

cuillère f. noun kɥi.jɛʁ spoon
1 [Vous] – “Vous” is also used to address one person formally.
2 [dîner] – “Un dîner” refers to the dinner that is eaten at around 19:00. “Un souper” can also be used to refer to this meal, but it is more
old-fashioned. Usually, we use “un souper” = supper to refer to meals that are eaten very late (around midnight) such as a meal after
watching a movie, for example.
3 [poulet] – There are also alternative options. One of these is the feminine word “poule” like it is used in “poule-au-pot”= boiled chicken,
while “le poulet” refers to a young cock (“un coq” like in “coq-au-vin”) or a young “poule,” which is a female chicken.

secouer verb sə.kwe to shake 3
mince adjective mɛ̃s thin
feuille f. noun fœj leaf
1 [chaussure] – (pl. “les chaussures”) We usually say “des chaussures” or “une paire de chaussures” because we use two of them at a time.
2 [aller] – A more formal translation is “se rendre (à...)” followed by the place to which you are going.
3 [secouer] – The verb “agiter” (to agitate) is also possible and common. However, if a person is shaking as a result of cold weather, the
correct translation is “trembler” (de froid), but “to shake hands with sb” = “serrer la main à quelqu’un.”

diamond wedding = “noces de diamant.” However, when talking about a “wedding anniversary” = “anniversaire de mariage”, “wedding
cake” = “gâteau de mariage,” or “wedding present”= “cadeau de mariage,” use “mariage.” Both expressions are possible, but the first is
a bit more old-fashioned.

six card. number sis 6 1
kilogramme m. noun ki.lo.ɡʁam kilogram 2
laid adjective lɛ ugly
plat adjective pla flat
poisson m. noun pwa.sɔ̃ fish
1 [six] – The pronunciation of the /X/ in “six” varies. It is typically silent when used before a noun that starts with a consonant. For example,
in “six jours,” “six” sounds like “see.” However, when it is used before a word that starts with a vowel, /X/ takes on a /Z/ sound instead, and
when it’s at the end of a phrase or at the end of a number that’s not followed by a noun, like “J’en ai quarante-six,” the /X/ is pronounced
like “eese.”
2 [kilogramme] – The common translation is “un kilo.” For example, “Je voudrais un kilo d’oranges s’il vous plaît” = “I’d like a kilo of
oranges, please.”

bon adjective bɔ̃ good
tasse f. noun tɑs cup
orange f. noun o.ʁɑ̃ʒ orange

1 [cuisiner] – There is a difference between “cuisiner” and “cuire.” “Cuisiner” means to prepare the food (i.e. following a recipe) while
“cuire” means to apply the heat (i.e. to grill). In a familiar sense and unrelated to food, “cuisiner quelqu’un” means to keep asking someone
questions in order to get informations (to pump). For example, “La policier cuisine le suspect” = “The police officer pumps the suspect. “
2 [Œuf] – The plural form of “œuf”, “œufs” has a radically different pronunciation: /ø/

treize – étage – bâtiment – passer – mort
©2014 Christopher Hastings

French Word Notes
treize card. number tʁɛz 13
étage m. noun e.taʒ floor 1
bâtiment m. noun bɑ.ti.mɑ̃ building 2
passer verb pa.se to pass by 3
mort f. noun mɔʁ death 4
1 [étage] – When using the term “floor” to designate the different levels of a building, use the word “étage.” Note the differences between
US and UK English in translating these three French terms: (FR) Rez-de-chaussée/Premier étage/Deuxième étage = (US) First floor/
Second floor/Third floor = (UK) Ground floor/First floor/Second floor. When referring to the part of the room on which you walk, the word
“le sol” = “floor” is used.
2 [bâtiment] – “Un édifice” and “une construction” ( from the verb “construire” = to build) are also commonly used.
3 [passer] – In some cases, “to pass by” can also mean “ignorer” (to ignore something) and even “snober” (to snub). The preposition “by”
can be translated by “devant” or “à côté.” For example, “It’s hard to pass by a mirror without looking at your reflection” = “Il est difficile
de passer devant un miroir sans regarder son reflet.” It contains both the idea of moving physically past or next to something and to ignore
it voluntarily or not. “Ne pas prêter attention à quelque chose” = “Not to pay attention to” = to ignore.
4 [mort] – Use “la mort” to refer to the death of someone or something, but “un mort” (feminine: “une morte”) = “a death.” The Grim
Reaper = La Grande Faucheuse

1 [pendre] – The best option is the verb “pendre” /pɑ̃dʁ/. The verb “suspendre” is the same as “to suspend” in American English. It can also
mean “to stop or delay an activity” so you may want to discard it as your main translation. “Accrocher” means “to hook.”
2 [art] – When referring to a genre in general, we usually use the indefinite article. i.e. “la musique, le cinéma, la peinture, etc.”

“packed lunch.”

bouteille f. noun bu.tɛj bottle
mal adjective mal bad 1
étudiant m. noun e.ty.djɑ̃ student 2
université f. noun y.ni.vɛʁ.si.te university
1 [mal] –Another word for ‘bad’ is ‘mauvais’. Both words are used, but in different contexts. ‘Mauvais’ can modify a noun (“un mauvais
acteur” - “a bad actor”), and is associated with wrong, disgusting, etc. “Mal” cannot modify a noun directly (you have to use it with a verb,
as in “C’est mal” - “That’s bad/wrong”) and usually refers to evil or pain.
2 [étudiant] – The correct translation is “un étudiant” (feminine: “une étudiante”). “Un (feminine: une) élève” = “a pupil” while “un
écolier” (feminine: “une écolière”) = “a school pupil” or a “schoolboy/schoolgirl” (from “school” = ”école”).

1 [race] – The word “race” was suppressed from French legislation last year, but the translation is correct. This is just to say that this word
has been the object of a debate whether or not it should be considered pejorative; a more neutral word is “une ethnie.”
2 [humain] – “un être humain” = “a human being.”
3 [lutter] – You can use “une lutte” or “un combat” as nouns, both meaning “a fight.”

However, there is a slight difference between the two: Normally, “un bus” is reserved for public transport in the city whereas “un car” is
for longer distances between cities (the equivalent of “a coach” in English).

1 [clair] – “Light” is translated by “clair” when we are talking about colors. For example, “light-blue” = “bleu clair.” If you want to
emphasize the presence of light, you could say “lumineux/lumineuse”= “bright” or “éclairé” (translation of the participle “lighted”); “lit”
= “éclairé” or “allumé” or “illuminé.”
2 [chemise] – You can use “Un chemisier” for “blouse”, and “un haut” for “a top.”

for elementary school and “un professeur” for middle school - college.
2 [école] – There are some more specific schools: “une école maternelle” = “preschool/kindergarten,” “une école primaire” = “elementary
school,” “un collège” = “middle school,” and “un lycée” = “high school.”
3 [moitié] – “Une moitié” /mwa.ti/ is a better option. “Un demi” cannot be used in isolation; there must be another word after it - (unless
if you’re in a bar and you mean…a beer). This “rule” doesn’t apply to “une moitié.”

“une boîte de nuit,” works well for ‘nightclub’ ( we commonly use the word “une boîte” in expressions like “aller en boîte”). However,
“a club” can also refer to the place where the members of a club meet, as in a sporting club, and the word “un club” is also largely used in
this sense: “un club sportif,” “un club de scrabble,” “un club du troisième âge”, etc.

2 [grande ville] – A city is “une grande ville” (a big town) compared to a “ville” (town) or a “village” (village). We consider a city to be
larger than a town. See the note on “town.”

to refer to the essence of a perfume.
2 [transport] – Use the direct article with this word as in “le transport” or “les transports.” If you need to use the indefinite article “un,” you

like “une note salée” = “a stiff/expensive bill” ( word for word : a bill with salt!)

become a single substance. “Remuer” is the translation of “to stir” and means that you move something slighty. “Mixer” means the same
as “mélanger,” but it may suppose the use of an appliance such as a food mixer, for example.

verb can also be translated by “augmenter” or “(se) développer” in particular if we are talking about business, such as “Notre entreprise
s’est développée rapidement cette année.” = “Notre entreprise a connu une expansion rapide cette année.” All of these verbs are common
(“croître”) or very common (“augmenter”, “se développer”, “pousser”, “grandir”).

automne – saison – septembre – camp

fille – se réveiller – mou – herbe – orteil

French Word Notes
automne m. noun o.tɔn fall
saison f. noun sɛ.zɔ̃ season
septembre m. noun sɛp.tɑ̃bʁ September
camp m. noun kɑ̃ camp 1
fille f. noun fij daughter
se réveiller verb sø ʁe.ve.je to wake
mou adjective mu soft 2
herbe f. noun ɛʁb grass 3
orteil m. noun ɔʁ.tɛj toe 4
1 [camp] – “Un camp” or “un campement” are two very common, synonymous terms. “Une colonie de vacances” only refers to a holiday
camp for kids . We find the word “camp” or “campement” in “camp de concentration,” “campement de réfugiés,” “camp de naturistes,”
“camp militaire” for example.
2 [mou] – Several meanings are possible, but the main two are “mou” (feminine: “molle”) or “moelleux” (feminine: “moelleuse”). For
example, if we are talking about a bed, a soft bed = “un lit moelleux” or “ un lit douillet.” Another main meaning is “doux” (feminine:
“douce”) such as in “soft music” = “une musique douce.” “Soft” can also be translated by “tendre” if we are talking about a person, but
“a soft drink” = “une boisson gazeuse” or “un soda.”
3 [herbe] – “Le gazon” and “la pelouse”= “lawn”
4 [orteil] – We often use the term “les doigts de pieds,” which is of course a less scientific term, but very commonly used. We also often
use the plural.

2 [savon] – “Savon” is the generic term, which can be in liquid or in powder form. “Une savonnette” is also used and refers to the small
solid cube we use in a bathroom.
3 [propre] – “net / nette” = “neat.” When speaking and using the familiar register, we say “C’est clean!” = “It’s clean!”

chanson f. noun ʃɑ̃.sɔ̃ song
cent mille card. number sɑ̃ mil 100,000
personne f. noun pɛʁ.sɔn person
foule f. noun ful crowd 4
danser verb dɑ̃.se to dance
1 [célèbre] – “Connu” is another well-known option.

2 [groupe musical] – “Band” refers to “un groupe musical,” but the term could also refer to a group of people who have joined together
because they share a common interest or beliefs; it could be “une bande de clowns” or “une bande d’acrobates, de jongleurs (jugglers),” etc.
3 [haut] – Since the top is the summit, we must be precise when using “tout en haut.” “Top” is a word that we have adopted in the French
language. e.g. “être au top” = “to be at one’s best.” Haut can mean both “top” and “high”
4 [foule] – “La cohue” is also a common word and refers to a crowd that is agitated; we often say, “C’est la cohue!” = “It’s a crush!” but
use “la populace” (populace) in the familiar register.

couteau m. noun ku.to knife

religion f. noun ʁə.li.ʒjɔ̃ religion
1 [méchant] – The first translation possible is “méchant” (unkind, malicious). For example, “That was a mean thing you did.” = “Ce que
tu as fait était vraiment méchant.” Another possible translation is “avare” or “radin” (stingy, miserly). For example, “Scrooge is a mean
character” = “Scrooge est un personnage avare.” A third “mean” can also be translated by “moyen” (feminine: “moyenne”) = (average).
e.g. “The mean score on the test was 70%.” = “Le résultat moyen au test a été de 70%.” There are still other possible meanings such as
“simple.” e.g. “My grandmother was just a mean factory worker.” = “Ma grand-mère n’était qu’une simple ouvrière.” There’s also “bas”
(feminine: “basse”) such as in, “His motives are mean and vile.” = “Ses motivations sont basses et viles.” In other sentences, “mean” can
be translated by “malveillant” (malevolent), but we use “élimé” (shabby) if we are talking about clothing for example; we can also use
“super,” “sacré,” or “d’enfer” when we use the word in a familiar register.
2 [enfer] – “C’est l’enfer!” = “It’s hell!”

bras m. noun bʁɑ arm
os m. noun ɔs bone
hôpital m. noun o.pi.tal hospital 3
salle f. noun sal room 4
quarante-deux card. number ka.ʁɑ̃t dø 42
1 [blessure] – Use”blessure”/blesyʀ/ when referring to an injury to a person’s body or to their feelings. “Un dommage” (prejudice) is also
possible.
2 [casser] – Use “casser,” which is the most common verb. The verb “rompre” is also widely used.
3 [hôpital] – “Un hôpital” designates a public establishment while “une clinique” refers to a private one.
4 [salle] – There are two or three very common words in French for this concept. The first possible translation is “une salle” as in the
following cases: “bathroom” = “salle de bain;” “dining-room” = “salle à manger;” “living-room” = “salle de séjour;” “classroom = salle
de classe.” However, if we talk about a bedroom, we use the other very common word, “une chambre.” Therefore, if you go to a hotel,
you would ask for “une chambre” ; “hotel room” = “chambre d’hôtel;” “student room” = “chambre d’étudiant;” “guestroom/spare room”
= “chambre d’amis.” The third option is “une pièce,” which is a generic term for any room, so a bedroom is “une pièce,” a bathroom is
“une pièce,” a kitchen is “une pièce,” an office is “une pièce,” and so on.

brun adjective bʁœ̃ brown

pattern m. noun pa.tɛʁn pattern 2
tee-shirt m. noun ti.ʃœʁt t-shirt 3
1 [livre] – France uses the metric system. The translation is correct, but this unit of measurement is simply not commonly used in France.
“Livre” can mean both “pound” and “book”
2 [pattern] – In French, “modèle” is the cut or the shape of the clothes, whereas “pattern” is the pattern on the clothes. In the example “a
short, vichy (checkered) dress” = “une robe courte en vichy”, vichy is the “pattern” and short dress is the “modèle.”
3 [tee-shirt] – Both options are correct: T-shirt or tee-shirt.
