Essential French Vocabulary - Set 1
People and emotions form the backbone of any language. You'll find accueillir (to welcome) incredibly useful when talking about hospitality, whilst avoir peur de (to be afraid of) helps express fears and concerns. When someone's en larmes (in tears), you'll know exactly what's happening.
Physical descriptions matter loads in French conversations. Maigre (thin) and la peau (the skin) are essential for describing people, whilst la chaleur (the heat) comes up constantly when discussing weather. These words appear frequently in GCSE speaking exams.
Social and cultural terms show your advanced understanding. Le cinéaste (the film maker) and réaliser (to make a film) connect to French cinema culture. Le défilé (the procession/parade) relates to French festivals and celebrations you'll study.
Modern life vocabulary keeps your French current. Un logiciel (a piece of software) reflects today's digital world, whilst les embouteillages (traffic jams) describes everyday urban experiences. Les réfugiés (the refugees) appears in current affairs discussions.
Top tip: Practice using aucun souci (no worries) in conversations - it's incredibly common in casual French and makes you sound natural!
