9780764103452: Dictionary of French Slang and Colloquial Expressions (English and French Edition)

Synopsis

Textbook knowledge of a language will only take you so far. Most languages have a large amount of slang utilized by those speaking it. Here is a volume that lists approximately 4,500 common slang words and colloquial expressions. Entries include grammatical information, the definition in English, a sentence or phrase to illustrate usage, and an English translation of the example and, where applicable, a corresponding English slang expression. Each entry also identifies the word or phrase by type: student or youth slang, political slang, literary slang, and criminal and drug-related slang. Because of the nature of slang, this book might contain certain expressions that some readers might find offensive.

From the Inside Flap

(back cover)
Travelers who speak some French, as well as French language students, know how important it is to get past the slang barrier. This book helps them do exactly that. It teaches French idioms and demonstrates how the French use them in normal conversation.

  • More than 4,000 words and colloquial expressions--many not found in standard English-French dictionaries--are listed alphabetically with definitions.
  • Each entry includes a phrase or short sentence demonstrating how the term is used in a conversational context.

    As a comprehensive summary of modern French slang usage, this book includes some entries generally considered vulgar. Some readers might find them offensive.
