A day in French - 35 - Kiss

Bonjour à tous, j'espère que vous allez bien ! Thank you for joining me today for a new episode. One of my colleagues shared a very interesting interview about a peculiar cultural aspect we have. You all know about it. I'm talking about la bise of course! How many foreigners have been completely puzzled by this tradition? I mean, how many kisses should one do? should you start from the right cheek or the left cheek? Should I kiss this man too? Today, we're not going to talk about the bulletproof way to faire la bise like a native, because frankly, there is none. Speaking about this negative aspect, this will be our grammar focus today. As a consequence if you're A+ or B1, this episode is for you. I will link on the show notes the video of the historian talking about the roots of la bise, if you'd like to see it. This is what inspired today's topic. As usual, you can download the transcription, the grammar focus and the vocabulary on frenchblabla.org.
