You are walking through the Louvre. You have dreamed of this moment for years. As a student of French art, you fell in love with many of these works in French books and films, but to see them with your own eyes now is breathtaking. You spend what must be an eternity at each French piece, taking in every line, every brushstroke, trying to relive the artists’ movements as they created each one. The French curator, noticing that you have visited several times for many hours and seem to know something about art, approaches you. He asks you your opinion about the painting you are looking at in French. You know that he spends a lot of time with the French art and has studied for years. You are flattered that he has asked, and a little intimidated to answer as well. You think to yourself that you may never get the opportunity to discuss French art with someone so deeply embedded in it again. Then you realize you do not know how to tell someone your opinion in French. How do you say, “I think…” or “I believe…” in French? Maybe you could just shrug your shoulders…

Your French company is having a huge party to celebrate their twentieth anniversary of going global! At first, you hated the idea, but you have really been working hard and you could really use a little break. Besides, it will give you a chance to get to know that cute redhead in accounting. Suddenly your French boss storms through the door of your office and awakens you from your daydream about the French redhead. He tells you in French that he wants you to be his right-hand man. Great, that sounds promising! Oh, he wants you to buy the food for the party…not quite the promotion you were hoping for. He says to make sure you get plenty of what…Choucroute garnie? How do you buy something when you don’t even know what it is? Something else you need to think about is how much is plenty, or too much, or enough…and how do you say that in French?

All you could think about was shopping, shopping, and shopping! Your husband wanted to go to the normal tourist attractions of course…and so did you. What you really wanted though was to do some serious French shopping and eat some real French food! Being the awesome wife that you are…you do what the husband wants to do first so he will let go of the wallet easier when it is your turn. The next day you tell your husband that you want to go to le grand magasin. You tell him you have heard wonderful things about this French place and thousands of people visit it each year. He is super-excited and ready to go before you are! When you arrive at a huge French department store, he wants to know why you are there. You sheepishly explain that this is where you told him you were going, and you remind him that he said he wanted to go. The moral of the story is that husbands should always learn at least as much French as your wives…if not a little more.

To say that your new French boss is more than a little steamed is an understatement! He slams the quarterly sales report on your desk and asks you in his thick French accent if this is your idea of a joke! You look at him confused and it is only then that he realizes you don’t know! If you could just crawl under your desk you would, but not while everyone in your office is watching! Does he always talk this loud or is it because he is laughing so hard that makes it seem that way? He tells you, in French this time that you speak in French like a pro… but you write in French like a Kindergartner! To this he bursts out laughing loudly again, this time with everyone in the French office behind him! He bellows that you have until morning to correct your mistakes and have the report on his desk! Can you just stay under yours…?
