Reseña del editor:
Kristin Espinasse first fell in love with the French language and culture while studying it at Arizona State University. During a semester abroad, she met the Frenchman who would become her husband when she joined him in Provence in 1992. Years later, when their two young children began learning the language, she found herself falling in love with it all over again. In 2002 she started a blog to collect the short pieces she had begun writing about her experiences as an American woman living in France and raising two very French children - who often had a thing or two to teach her about the language! Charming and practical, WORDS IN A FRENCH LIFE uses the language as its jumping off place. A piece called "Linge" ("laundry") swoons over the wonderful scent the laundry has after being hung out in the French countryside. "Comptoir" ("counter") is about the intricacies of grocery shopping in France. "Gronder" ("to scold") is what happens when she and her husband disturb an elderly neighbor while making renovations to their cottage. "Beurk" ("gross!") is about what her daughter says when faced with a plate of spinach, versus what Americans say when spotting roast pigeon on a French menu. And in "Toquade" ("crush"), when her son begins fussing with his hair before school in the morning, she realizes he has developed an interest in a female classmate who shares his love of the soccer team Olympic de Marseille.

Descripción Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Imagine a former French major getting vocabulary tips from her young children! That was the experience of Kristin Espinasse, an American who fell in love with a Frenchman and moved to his country to marry him and start a family. When her children began speaking the language, she found herself falling in love with it all over again. To relate the stories of her sometimes bumpy, often comic, and always poignant assimilation, she created a blog called "French Word a Day," drawing more admirers than she ever could have imagined. With an approach that is as charming as it is practical, Espinasse shares her story through the everyday French words and phrases that never seem to make it to American classrooms. "Comptoir" ("counter") is a piece about the intricacies of grocery shopping in France, and "Linge" ("laundry") swoons over the wonderful scent the laundry has after being hung out in the French countryside while "Toquade" ("crush") tells of Espinasse's young son, who begins piling gel onto his hair before school each morning when he becomes smitten with a girl in class. Steeped in French culture but experienced through American eyes, Words in a French Life will delight armchair travelers, Francophiles, and mothers everywhere. Synopsis coming soon. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Nº de ref. del artículo: 9780743287296
