When you made plans to travel to France for the summer you never thought you would meet so many French friends. So far, the French words and phrases you have learned have helped you communicate in French wonderfully. Tonight you are at a party with some of the people you met in France though and you can’t remember how to ask “who is that?’ in French! You would give anything right now for a few minutes alone with a computer and FrenchPod101.com’s French Newbie Lesson 10! Maybe one of your new French friends knows enough English to help you!
Learning French with FrenchPod101.com is the most fun and effective way to learn French! This French Newbie lesson will teach you how to ask, “who is that” in French. You will also learn all about three different types of French expressions.

Who do you talk about mostly? yourself?
I do I love to talk about myself and rarely about others….especially when I gossip!
I am looking at someone who is hot. The hottie notices that I am staring, and the hottie looks at me. Then our eyes are locked (Our eyes meet). How do you say that in French — “Our eyes locked.”?
Thanks for putting this site up! I found you guys through JapanesePod.
Question: On va avoir bientôt des leçons aux niveaux avançés?
J’aime les audio blogs, mais une conversation au même niveau me plairait beaucoup.
Merci!
Bonjour Chase!
On travaille sur les leçons au niveau avancé! Je ne peux pas te donner de date mais ça ne devrait pas tarder!
Et merci à tous pour vos commentaires! Thanks for your comments!
Careyxxx, the translation for” Our eyes locked” could be:
“Nos yeux se sont rencontrés”
or
“Nos regards se sont croisés”
When I met the FrenchPod101 team recently I mistook Alexander for Silvain! Excusez mois! Other than that I’m pretty good with faces.
We can’t help looking at a hottie, but sometimes the hottie is not amused. How do you say in French — “I looked at the hottie, but the hottie was not pleased”?
Maxiewawa,
its better than mistaking me for Sylvain ! It was nice meeting you and having lunch together with the Frenchteam but yes Sylvain was missing.
Careyxxx, you would say : “J’ai regardé la bombe mais elle n’avait pas l’air enchanté”
Robert checks out his coworker who is checking out his daughter.
Robert mate son collègue qui mate sa fille.
What are you into?
Qu’ est-ce qui te branches?
Est-ce que tu te branches les jeunes filles?
Are you into young girls?
I don’t understand “Qu’ est-ce qui…?”
I don’t understand if it is asking “Who are you into?” (Robert’s daughter) or
“What are you into?” (young girls).
