Mistakable French: Faux Amis and Key Words
- Used Book in Good Condition
Witty, entertaining, and informative, this book will be of immediate use to anyone using the French language and needing to understand French society and culture. Its focus is upon those words and phrases which can be seriously misunderstood because of their seemingly close resemblance to English wrods. The book also includes a number of key words used in each of the subject areas into which the text is divided: Literature, Economics and Industry, Religion and Morals, The Arts, Language, Travel and Health, Sex and the Family, Food and Drink, and Clothes and Houses. The individual entries have been carefully designed to carry the basic linguistic information required and then develop into a wider consideration of the social and cultural context within which the specific words and phrases are used in French. Includes ample illustrative examples taken from current French usage.
