La Haute Route, part 4
Practice your French listening comprehension in part 4 of this low-intermediate level audio journal about a hiking trip through the Swiss Alps.

Gender patterns
French gender is a constant headache for many students of French. There's no simple way to know the gender of every noun other than just learning the gender with each word. There are, however, some patterns in suffixes and word endings - certain endings tend to indicate masculine nouns, while other endings favor feminine nouns. These gender patterns are not fool-proof, but they can help you to figure out the gender of many French nouns.
Learn more: gender patterns | Video

Expressions with bouche
The French word bouche literally means any kind of "mouth" - of a person, an oven, a volcano... - and is also used in many idiomatic expressions. Learn how to say food bills, gourmet, astonished, and more with this list of expressions with bouche.

Les soldes - c'est parti !
It's time once again for France's twice-annual shopping frenzy: Les soldes, which run this summer from 27 June to 31 July.
