The best one when you're lost in a conversation is: "C'est pas faux" and it match with the "tu as raison" too.
Perceval approved. ;)
oh que oui !
À Paris last month, I just started avec bonjour, I toujours got nice response and the help I needed:) Bonjour et au revoir are magic words.
This video is so good! And you are a fantastic teacher!
So practical and helpful! Thank you so much. You're my favorite teacher!
Thanks Géraldine. I'm still with you. Your videos motivate me. Keep them coming.
I just started to learn French on my 2 hour commute with with an app. I like to watch videos like this also. Yours is the only one I have subscribed to!
Bonjour Géraldine, une expression qui me fait marrer est "Je pète le feu" pour "Je vais bien.
I tried to speak French to ppl in France..... I said Bonjour.... In return I got a dumb stare and poor English... I tried. I ain't get no super! Lol.
Tankist It's a game then really. The point is if you just keep replying in french they will end up "losing" and replying in french too.
Bonsoir I love to watch these videos over and over again as the videos that Geraldine post a very easy to understand merci Geraldine
Merci! Votre video ma plus Aidé.
Merci
You are the best French teacher, ever!
Merci Ami...Allez-les bonnes temps.
Merci, madamme. Je comprend facilement! Vous etes tres bien!
Merci! I show your work to my students often :)
Fantastique! Merci!!
i love your channel. it is very helpful. you're fantastique!!!
I love it!!! Will use it for sure!!!
Thanks for the great video!
C'est cool! Merci, c'est tres utile!
Merci Geraldine!!!!! J’apprends tellement!!!!!!!!!😃😃😃😃😃
if you get super lost in conversation, just smile :-) then say "ouais"
Until they look at you and reply 'oui?!', like they cannot believe you just said 'yes' to whatever they'd just been saying. You could laugh, look sheepish and quickly reply 'non?', but they will probably have sussed you don't understand much of what they've just said... I've been there!
- T’es con ou quoi ?
- (smile) ouaisss
Earl Prinsloo i can relate so bad it’s sad 😂

Super! Merci beaucoup!
Can i just say how wonderful you are. I have always wanted to learn a language and been one of those men who said i wish i knew French. This comes from when i lived with my mother and we met a English lady who had been living in france for 10 years and 2 weeks before my gcse in French helped me to learn the basics but more than this she installed a love for the French language as i saw the passion she had for it. Now i am 41 and made the decision to actually put the effort in and commit. i am using duo lingo at the same time as i discovered this before you. Can i just also say how well structured your lessons are and how fantastic you are as a teacher. I think what you have done is amazing and you have made my learning so much fun and i am committed to your learning too. You make sense, make things easy and have a great smile :) Thank you for producing all your videos and lessons from Byron (Leicester England)
Your videos are so amazing!!! Merciiiii💙💙💙💙💙💙
Merci beaucoup, cette vidéo m'a beaucoup plut, j'en tire les leçons nécessaires et dorénavant j'améliorerais un peu plus mon français.
merci beaucoup :)
You are a nice teacher
Bonjour et merci Géraldine ! Your classes are très cool 👍 💕
Fantastique! Merci beaucoup
Merci beaucoup
Merci!
I like this woman’s style of dressing, with the white collars on her dresses. I may have to be in a more conducive surrounding to begin slowly absorbing these lessons properly, but I would gladly learn from such a person, she is very friendly, and kind, so easy to learn from.
God bless
🌹c’est magnifique
The Francophone world says “goodbye” in many different ways; I knew some African French speakers who would leave by saying, “Moins un”.
Thank you for all the work you put into these videos.
Merci
J'aime cette vidéo, ça c'est magnifique 👍
Salut Geraldine, Thank you for all the videos! I listen to them everyday now in the office :) Mackie
Cette video est très géniale! Merci beaucoup, professeur!
Merci 🙏✨
bonjour de la Grece.on vous remercie bien pour l'aide que vous faites a nous aider parler meilleur le francais. c'est genial. bisous
You're really nice teacher
C'est cool! Merci pour les conseils! Ton canal c'est genial.
In France, we said "une chaine" instead of "canal"
Guto Amorim canal?
That kind of sounded...vulgar to me...
Chouette! Tu es trés gentile!
Je l'adore, cet vidéo. Merci beaucoup pour ça.
Ce video...
Merci beacoup
Merci beaucoup! Je *parle * un peu le francais pas tre bien. Vous est super la professeur!
Tanks
When you speak both English & Spanish, you have a hard time trying to say things in French using less words!
Quelle magnifique vidéo , merci beaucoup pour tes conseils , ça m’a aidée trop
♥️
Faint with your breakfast croissant in hand! 🤣🥐
I know it made me want a croissant too.
Bonjour! I am going to France in May. I'm trying to learn some basic French. Having learned some Spanish I am constantly trying to pronounce words they way the Spanish do. I am so excited to come to Paris. I have a lot to learn. Merci! Au revoir!
thx, useful :-))) i'm english so i don't want to express any complex feelings anyway
Your French accent is excellent.
Tu as raison
pour moi je peux parler mais le problème écoute et compréhension
ughh moi ausssssi
la même chose pour moi :(
je comprend mais je puex pas parler
Moi aussi, je dois utiliser et lire le sous-titres. Mon vocabulaire est pas grand et.. les Francophones, ils parlent plus vite pour mes oreilles.
Moi c'est le contraire
Peux-tu me passer du _____? Can you pass me the _____? So useful at the table!
Merci mille fois pour la petite poésie au but de ton vidéo ❤️ trop mignon et ça fait du bien comme nous sommes amis 💐.... Um, pour ta question... Je pense que le mot "oui" et la phrase "c'est ça"- jettes les deux partout de la conversation et ça va tomber bien 😋
Il y beaucoup des mots merveilleuse dans ves clles. ju pense que 'tu peux parler plus lentement' est tres utile. Merci beaucoup for tes classes merveilleuse : ) J'espere quil'ny a pas trop des erreurs ici...pat en irlande
Você é boa 👍👍👍
Salut Merci votre vidéo c'est superbe et informative☺ je parle englez commet est mon français?
Offrez-vous les lecons français? J'aime le langue et je voudrais practiquer mon pronunciation et le grammaire. Savez-vous bon exercises pour practiquer aussi?
Please tell about daily routine
Bonjour! 'bear with me I am still learning!!!' :) c'est quoi en francais?!! Merci
Bonjour.
I would like to know how to say when I did not heard what the other was saying.
Perhaps because of its too noisy around
It is actually super easy don't mention it hard its super easy to learn French
je voudrais savoir comment dire en francais GOD BLESS YOU? Et encore comment dire take care of your self? keep in touch ? merci beaucoup pour vos efforts
Bonjour Geraldine , I am happy I discovered your channel the other day. ....Je suis trôp content que j'ai trouvé ton channel(?) Utube l'autre journée (I am sure i made lots of mistakes😊😊) Blossom
Best
I love this channel, it’s so useful!!! does anyone know of a spanish equivalent?
Olivia Janku bonjour ! je regarde les “channels” espagnols du mode, la maquillage, la vie, etc. parce que je n’avais pas trouvé un “channel” espagnol (quoi est-ce le mot pour “channel” en français ??) comme ça encore, mais is tu le trouverait, dis-moi !! xo
Mia Cole Bonjour, j'ai l'impression que la chaîne comme celle-ci n'existe pas, (une chaîne, le mot français pour " un channel") mais je trouve deux chaînes qui sont similaires, mais la seule langue que l'on parle dans ces videós est espagnol et des sous-titres sont espagnols aussi, donc si tu parles un peu espagnol cettes chaînes peuvent être utiles, ses noms sont: "Español con Juan" et "Tu escuela de español". Mes amies les utilisent et sont contenteés.
PS: Le mot espagnol pour la chaîne/the channel est el canal :)
search for "Butterfly Spanish" Olivia. cheers
Don’t learn French and Spanish at the same time. The languages have so many words in common that you’ll end up getting confused. At least I did.
Je dirais de même, merci Géraldine! Bel décor et tout. Mais... I'm just chinese, not German, huh...
I tried to speak French to ppl in France.come from China， I said Bonjour.
My first time here great lesson and your very beautiful!
Yha... Thank you so much....
I use to watch your videos again and again......
But learning French is important....
But the more important is to know the behaviour of the French peoples.... As it's difficult for us to deal with French people......
As they seems different... Or we have lack of knowledge about them.......
So can you please explain us that...
As.. that is the most important thing.......
That's all.....
Merci beaucoup.....
S'il vous plait. Quelle est la différence entre "pardon" et "excusez moi" ?? Merci
For me, the most useful expression is, "Je pige que dalle." Heureusement, je comprends de plus en plus.
David Guy "dalle"? traduct svp :)
Moi, j'adore ça!
Can you give a lesson on expressions of annoyance e.g. “n’importe quoi!” Or “j’en ai marre!”
c qoi ce morceau en arriere-plan?
Do the French drop ‘ne’ from negatives in conversation? So, is it better to say ‘J’ai pas compris?’
I like "the work is small and life is longg!"
It's The world* but yeah it's a nice saying
Where can we e mail you ?
je pense que c'est aussi popular de dire "voilà" ou "bennn" ou "genre" :)
Nice telephone.
Can we also say " comment dit ton" ? And also the sentence to survive lot of conversation in French for me has been je sais or oui or vraiment or je content pour toi or je suis desolé
J'espère pouvoir dire 'Je t'ai pas dit ? J'ai réussi le DELF' 😂
Super ! C'est chouette ! Je suis trop contente pour toi ! :)
I think the most helpful expression was: "Je n'ai pas compris que tu m'a dit."
Hi ! Geradine please send me free lessons.
".ca me fait heureuse"
Mon ancien prof de français m’a dit que l’expression la plus utile pour soutenir une longue conversation avec un Français c’est, « Ah bon ? » En fait, il n’a pas menti car très peu après lors d’une soirée où la plupart des invités étaient francophone, j’ai fait glisser cette expression dans mes conversations, et hop, ç’a bien marché ;)
En angleterre, si quelqu'un ne veux pas parler, on disais "...ouais, d'ailleurs..." et juste quitter 🤐 😂🤗
She even has outstanding English that surpasses most Americans living in the southern United States :)
L K Is English your native language? You mustn't be from the south with grammar that poor. In all seriousness, while she does speak English very well, you don't have to put down others when you make a compliment. That's completely unnecessary and downright ugly.
L K j'suis d'accord. et le plurpart d'angleterre 😅 (où j'habite)
The hard Truth that's rude. Why are people so mean
@@mindywyse9515 because they feel inferior. The Yankee accent is like nails on a chalkboard. I'd hate myself if I spoke like that too.
Aimee Ward what?
How about 'Partir, c'est mourir un peu' as a poetic goodbye? OK, maybe that's a bit of a downer. :)
If you don't want to say 'Je déconne' you could maybe say 'J'ai dit ça pour rire'. I've heard French people say that when something that I thought was serious, wasn't! Or 'Je te fais marcher', though I don't know whether that's polite.
Oui, mais c'est le ton qui fait la chanson, n'est pas ?
Is it ok to say 'comment' when you don't quite hear or understand something? I hear the French say it all the time but think it sounds impolite ??
Hi I want to learn French can someone help me please
