I love the French language. I feel like I could make an episode like this every year. The ten words and words like I like, that make me smile, or that have some kind of a fun story to them.
You can hear me describing them and pronouncing them in greater detail in this week's podcast episode, or click here to read the blog and see the spelling.
Music in this episode is from Pres Maxson.
