How many times have you seen girls (and sometimes guys) screaming and crying on the front row at a concert? Yes, there is something sexy about a man playing a guitar…if he isn’t wearing spandex and over fifty-years-old, I guess. Wouldn’t it be something if we all received that sort of treatment? Imagine it! You are on your way to work at a little French coffee shop. You open the front door to your modest little apartment in Paris, when suddenly flashes erupt from everywhere! How did the French paparazzi find you again? You rush out the door, swarmed by a nest of hungry vultures, dying just to catch a glimpse of you to spread across the gossip pages! They beat down the doors of the French coffee shop all day, screaming and chanting your name in French, “Your Name, Your Name, Your Name!” On second thought, I enjoy being the vulture! By the way…purely out of curiosity, what is it that you do? Free lance investment banker? Lingerie model? Podcaster? (We wish!)

How do you say in French “I like your older brother”?
J’aime ton frère aîné. (Is that correct?)

Pimple Daniel must be disappointed that Aurilie likes older guys. How does he ask her “Dans quoi es-tu, les mecs plus agés?” (Is that correct?)

Celine says:

Oui j’aime ton frère aîné, c’est correct. Tu peux aussi dire : “J’aime ton grand frère”.

but if Daniel wants to ask Aurélie, it would be :

” Tu préfères les mecs plus âgés ?” (use this only with friends :lol: )
