Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Do you speak English?

Answer: Parlez-vous anglais?

Only use this if your French-English dictionary fails you!

2. Where is the restroom?

Answer: Ou sont les W.C.?

In France (and most of Europe), the restroom is the WC (water closet). To say 'WC' in French, it's pronounced 'doobleh vay say', although most French people shorten it to 'vay say'.

3. Ou est la banque?

Answer: Where is the bank?

4. Bonne nuit.

Answer: Good night.

5. Speak slowly.

Answer: Parlez lentement.

Lentement means 'slowly'.

6. We're lost.

Answer: Nous sommes perdus.

7. Puis-je vous aider?

Answer: Can I help you?

8. What day is this?

Answer: Quel jour est-ce?

Although the correct answer is what most learn in school as it's the formal version, many French people say "Quel jour sommes-nous?" now. This has the meaning of asking where in time we are. Another variation is "Quel jour est-il?"

9. I'm hungry.

Answer: J'ai faim.

In French, we say 'I have hunger' or 'I have thirst'. Therefore, 'I'm hungry' uses avoir - the verb 'to have'.

10. I'm American.

Answer: Je suis americaine.

And it would be "Je suis americain" for the men.
