I (Elo) share 5 of the most common false friends between French and English, those tricky words that look similar but mean something completely different!

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why “actuellement” doesn’t mean “actually”

• What a “librairie” really is

• Why “sensible” doesn’t mean “sensible”

• The difference between “attendre” and “to attend”

For each word, I explain its true meaning, how to use it correctly, and give real-life examples in both French and English. Perfect for A2 to B1 French learners who want to improve accuracy and sound more natural in French.

In this French podcast episode, I (Gatien) share a more personal and relatable topic: springtime pollen allergies! It’s sunny and beautiful outside, but for many of us… it’s also the season of itchy eyes, runny noses, and nonstop sneezing.

You’ll hear natural and everyday French vocabulary around:

• Describing physical symptoms (sneezing, watery eyes, fatigue…)

• Talking about the seasons and environment

• Common health-related words like anti-histaminiques (antihistamines)

• How I manage symptoms at home

I speak slowly and clearly, so it’s perfect for A2-B1 learners who want to improve their listening skills while learning useful vocabulary related to health and daily life in France.
