Bonjour, I don't know whether to tutoyer or vouvoyer someone and also to know the reason for doing so. I think that one vouvoies these people: 1. an authority figure; 2. someone who has high/respected title or position; 3. an elder person; 4. someone to whom you are not close. And in any case, you may tutoyer as soon as that person permits you to do so. Are those accurate/complete? If they ask me "ça va?", is that a signal to me to tutoyer them? Merci à l'avance et bonne journée!

I've already posted quite an exhaustive post regarding this, please look for it. However "ça va" doesn't mean you can start tutoyer someone at all. It's not very formal indeed, but it's rather neutral actually as it uses the neutral "ça" pronoun. When people want you to tutoyer them, they usually instruct it very clearly, like "tu peux me tutoyer, tu sais", "on peut se tutoyer", "ça te va si on se tutoie ?" or something like that. They'll make it 100% clear for sure.

My mother-in-law was from southern Belgium, She called my husband “timousse”, (pronounced tea-moose) unsure of the spelling. What would this mean in French?

She meant "p'tit mousse", which means "lil sailor". It's a cute pet name for children, quite old though. Young parents today wouldn't use it.

Pourquoi on parle jamais du débat crayon de bois/crayon à papier?? 😂

Parce que y'a que les Bretons qui disent crayon de bois, et que what happens in Bretagne stays in Bretagne. #vegas #Breizhgas

When is plus pronounced with an S at the end, and when is it not?

"Plus" meaning "+" > with the S pronounced "Plus" meaning "no more" > without the S pronounced. "J'en veux plus" > "I want more" > Pronounced "J'en veux PLU-SS" "Je n'en veux plus" > "I don't want more" > Pronounced "J'en veux PLU- "

could you call your kids “mes petits” for “my little ones”?

Yes, sure!

So once I was flirting with a French man and he said “Mais tu et coquine?” And then said if again in bed and I could never fathom from context exactly what it meant. I know it’s something like naughty but I’d love to know the correct translation xx

Well, coquine exactly means "naughty".

Hi, ever since I discovered ‘urban dictionary’ for English slang words I was wondering if there is some kind of equivalent for the French language ? Thanks :)

Do you have a master list of the vocabulary and phrases you’ve shared?

Use the #vocabulary and #idiom hashtags :)

What means the idiom avoir des fourmis dans les jambes?

It means that you feel like your legs are tingling :)

I was planning on visiting Paris next week, however with the protests, my family are worried that tensions are getting high and it'll be too dangerous and might escalate. Do you believe that will be the case? I'd been planning this trip for a while and I didn't want to cancel if I don't have to.

Oh no, you can come, really. Everything’s pretty normal in the daily life. Just check if there’s a protest where you’re supposed to go, let’s say the Tour Eiffel for instance, and adapt your trip accordingly if needed. Feel free to let me know where you plan on going and I can tell you if it’s all okay or not :)

Are you still writing? Any exciting upcoming projects?

I do! I’m actually becoming a professional scriptwriter :) I directed two short movies so far and I try to sell a movie to producers at the moment.

L'enregistrement réunit notamment Olivia Ruiz, La Grande Sophie, Jennyfer Ayache, Elodie Frégé, Agnès Jaoui, ou encore Barbara Carlotti.

Are the protests currently going on (Nov.2018) mainly the result of car taxes or are there other issues too but the car stuff is just getting more recognition?

The country’s pretty much imploding to be honest. Macron’s government keeps making poor choices and keeps not giving a damn about the people’s voice. Thing is that France has always been a protesting country, we run to the street when we don’t like something. So Macron decided that this had to stop and that he won’t listen to the street anymore, he’ll pass his laws and taxes increases regardless of the population’s protests. Of course, you can guess that it’s a poor choice of behavior, while he keeps increasing taxes, keeps giving room to lobbies, gun trades, etc. So now, the protests become more and more violent, and crucial enough to be mentioned, all kinds of people go protesting now. Not only trade unions and stuff, but the young, the elderly, women, POC, the medical field, right wing, left wing… People just have had enough.
