French is said to be the most beautiful language in the world. We all know that Paris is the city of love and romance and it is also what makes the French language so attractive. People in French have je ne sais quoi (ineffable quality) about them. They are bestowed with great style, tasty food, stellar wine and gorgeous accent and a language that is liked the world over. So if you want to impress someone, you can make the best use of these French words (click here for translation and interpretation services). Here we go:
Bisou
It is a word that slips off the tongue rather quickly when you move away from anyone whose company you enjoy the most. You say it’s Bisous. Who will you be sending the next Bisou (Kiss) to? In French culture, they greet each other with one Bisou on each cheek in many regions. So when you visit France, put your hands away and extend the cheeks.
Chuchoter
Can you deny an intimate Chucho-Ter (whisper) in French? You might find it a little hard to understand but that may be seen as a bonus (ask for a repeat!). The excitement might send a quiver down your spine.
Parapluie
It is just another beautiful word that might just cheer you on a rainy day. If you go out of the home and hear rain, just ensure that you are carrying a parapluie (umbrella) in the bag. The word is lovely to hear and say, and what’s more, it protects you from the rain as well. Isn’t it great? If you split the word into two halves to make para + pluie, it will help in explaining the origin of this word. Para- is a prefix that is used to indicate protection (think “parasol” protection from the sun) and pluie is the French word for “rain,” meaning protection from the rain!
Envie
If you are in France and having a nice time with locales and you come across the word envie (desire), then you know they’re interested. Paris is one of the most romantic cities in the world, and the people here are very romantic as well. You will frequently hear J’ai envie de te vou (I have the desire to see you).
