If God decided to pluck you out of your computer chair and put you down in Paris, at a random time during its long history, the chances are that you wouldn’t recognise where you were. If you said “excusez-moi” to the first passerby he might be a Celtic fisherman, a Roman soldier, a Hun invader, or a Viking settler, depending on the time period you had been thrown into.

In today’s Advanced Audio Blog we learn about some of Paris’s history, and its influence on French culture. For a full English translation, and vocabulary list visit FrenchPod101.com
