Let's Parler Franglais!The trouble with French is that there are far too few English words in it. In this book, Miles Kington, the critic, columnist and creator of Franglais, puts all that right. The language here can be understood by almost anyone who failed GCSE French. If you have passed GCSE French, it could be tricky, but try anyway. A Frenchman would probably not understand a word of it, not that he would let on. |
