Not understanding French films and shows?
|
One of the reasons I started learning French was because I wanted to watch French films and shows in original version AND understand the jokes.

Mussels and fries with a crisp glass of white wine on the side was everything I needed this summer. But there were signs for moules frites everywhere and I knew there had to...
I love stand-up comedy. Growing up, I used to watch Def Comedy Jam and Comedy Central on TV. Now with YouTube and Netflix, there are so many more options. So the other day I was watching a podcast where comedian Hannah Berner said something I knew I'd email you about. (Yup, I'm a Giggler...IYKYK) When talking about her first Netflix special, We Ride At Dawn, she explained how she initially didn't have a joke that paired with the title. So she reworked one of her jokes at the end to include...
