Virginie said that French men, as a rule do not kiss each other. I live in Cannes, in the south east of France, so perhaps it is different in this region. All my male friends kiss each other, all the time with each greeting and departure. They only shake hands the first time. Kisses can tell everyone in the room if you have met before, what your relationship is or if the person who is introducing you is familiar. When I broke up with my french (from Toulouse) boyfriend of three years, all I had to do was refuse to allow him to kiss my cheek. The entire room held its breath as I turned away and remained extremely uncomfortable the entire evening. We never had to say a word to each other. Once he got the message, I had to allow him to bisou me next time we greeted each other in public or it would have caused too much trouble. The kiss says it all.

Eric a dit qu'on traduit "Madame" par "Miss" (04:03), et Virgine a dit qu'on épele l'infinitif de "m'appelle" comme "s'appelle' (05:50). C'est ces erreurs que j'ai mentionnées Merci d’avoir expliqué la différence entre les deux séries.

It is an introductory level. If you had no notions of French at all that would be the lesson series to start with. THe level is for people from 0 to 10 % level of fluency. Beginner series It is meant for people who have some basic or knowledge about the language. I'd say have a 10-20 % fluency level. Hi

Here is the difference between the two series:

But here it is clarified: Madame => Mrs Mademoiselle (non mariée) => Miss Elle s'appelle Madame Dupont. It is confusing. But here it is clarified:

Madame => Mrs
Mademoiselle (non mariée) => Miss

Elle s’appelle Madame Dupont.

C'est "Mrs", non ? "Mrs" est "Madaemoiselle" en français, je crois D'ailleurs, c'est "s'appele', pas "s'appelle". Je suis très heureux que Virginie est retourné

D’ailleurs, c’est “s’appele’, pas “s’appelle”.
