If you want to speak like a real French person, you have to master l’argot, as today, you will hear sentences that are made up of at least 50% slang. In this French Slang workshop students will dive headfirst into the linguistic underground, mastering the art of casual conversation like a true Parisian.
We believe it’s important that our students appreciate both le français soutenu (formal French) and le français familier (informal French). French slang is not just about bad words and cursing. It includes frequently used synonyms (une caisse = une voiture), the contraction and pronunciation of words (chui = je suis) as well and other structural specificities such as le verlan (une teuf = une fête).
