Key learning points
- French cuisine is celebrated for its wide array of dishes and foods, many of which are famous around the world.
- 'y' and 'en' are often used in speech to replace a group of other words.
- Y means 'there' or '(to, about, in) it'. En means '(of) it/them'. When used together, 'y' comes before 'en'.
- In formal role-plays, it is important to be able to understand formal speech, including 'vous' verbs and 'votre'.
Keywords
Y - indirect object pronoun meaning ‘there’ and '(to, about, in) it'
En - indirect object pronoun meaning 'of it/them' used to replace 'de + noun'.
Role-play - a task with a situation and prompts to ask and answer questions, simulating a conversation
Vous - polite 'you'
Common misconception
It doesn't matter if you address a stranger in France as 'tu' or as 'vous'.
Using the correct register of address is very important for students. Practising role-plays in both formal and informal settings allows students to understand when to use the appropriate form of 'you'.
