Amélie (2001) is one of the most well-known French movies, and with good reason! It is a beautiful, poetic display of French culture. But luckily for YOU, it also gives us a fantastic example of colloquial, REAL spoken French - the kind you might actually expect to hear in a cozy café in Montmartre.
In today's lesson, we'll explore a short dialogue between some of the movies main characters. I'll explain some of the vocabulary you may not know, and we'll keep revisiting the scene until you completely understand it. Are you ready? Let's dive in!
What new vocabulary did you learn today? Let me know in the comments.
Take care and stay safe.

French can be a confusing language for many reasons, one being that questions aren’t always obvious. It’s one of the BIGGEST differences that I’ve noticed between French and English. English grammar makes it pretty obvious when someone is asking you a question. But in French, it isn’t always as clear.
In today’s lesson, you’ll learn how to properly identify a question in fast spoken French. We’ll even play a game to see if you can really distinguish between a statement and a question in French. Are you ready to test yourself? Let’s go.
Take care and stay safe.
