Lesson Vocabulary & Phrases
Salut !
sah-LOO
Hi!
🇫🇷 [Salut !] is casual. Fine in a bar with someone your age, but too informal for staff unless the vibe is very relaxed.
See breakdown →Tu viens souvent
ty vyen soov-tahn
Do you come often
Ici ?
ee-see
Here?
Tu viens souvent ici ?
ty vyen soov-tahn ee-see
Do you come here often?
🇫🇷 This is a classic chat-up line, so it can sound playful or cliché depending on your tone. In a bar, it works best with a smile, not as your very first line out of nowhere.
See breakdown →Pas vraiment.
pah vreh-mahn
Not really.
C'est ma première fois
seh eh mah preh-myehr fwah
It's my first time
💬 [C'est] uses [c'] because [ce] drops its vowel before another vowel sound. You will see the same thing in [c'est], [c'était], and [c'est un bar sympa].
See breakdown →Cette année.
set ah-nay
This year.
C'est ma première fois cette année.
seh eh mah preh-myehr fwah seht ah-neh
It's my first time this year.
💬 [C'est] uses [c'] because [ce] drops its vowel before another vowel sound. You will see the same thing in [c'est], [c'était], and [c'est un bar sympa].
See breakdown →Et toi ?
eh twah
And you?
🇫🇷 [Et toi ?] keeps the conversation balanced and shows interest without sounding too intense. In flirting, that light back-and-forth matters more than long speeches.
