Bonjour tout le monde !
Welcome to our Daily Dose of Positivity!
Today, let's focus on the people we love. I'll start by thanking my wonderful husband, who is making this whole situation much more bearable. Love you Ant :) So yes, today, love is what it's all about!
- First, a romantic French expression:
- avoir des papillons dans le ventre
(to have butterflies [in one's stomach]- Note that in French, this expression is specific to being in love)
Julien avait des papillons dans le ventre à chaque fois qu'il pensait à elle. Julien had butterflies every time he thought about her.
- The search for love stops for nothing, not even a global pandemic. Read this French article about a New Yorker who used all his powers of imagination to seduce one of his neighbours while in lockdown:
And here is a sentence from this article linked to our related French lessons:
Lorsqu’elle est sortie de son immeuble, Tori a explosé de rire, car, pour se conformer aux règles de distanciation sociale, Jérémy s’était enfermé dans une bulle géante gonflable en plastique.
When she came out of her building, Tori burst out laughing, because, in order to conform to social distancing rules, Jeremy had enclosed himself in a giant inflatable plastic bubble.
Have a lovely Tuesday!
Prenez soin de vous et à demain !
Aurélie
