Sound French with 275 Food and Cooking Expressions and Idioms: Sound French with Expressions and Idioms, #2

By Jean K. MATHIEU

«Être rouge comme une tomate» is a famous one! Food and cooking can be used to express many things! Although I expected a lot of idioms when I made this book, I didn't realized I knew so much of them, and I was actually using them on a daily basis! For this volume about Food and Cooking, I only picked 60% of the actual number of idioms that exist with food. They are all worth knowing but I wanted this list to be practical and useful for everyday spoken French. Therefore I selected the ones that I hear more often.
The one that you can actually use without sounding like a book! I hope you will enjoy it!
In this book you will find:

275 Food and Cooking Expressions, with meaning and examples.

About the author

Teaching French is my job, and I specialized in pronunciation and exam/interview preparation. For several years, I help French learners to achieve their goal, succeed the DELF and the TEF, pass interviews with French recruiters or universities, and help French learners to travel in France with more confidence.

My only concern is to be the most effective for you and that’s why I focus only on French that you can actually use ever day.
