“La flemme”, short for “j’ai la flemme” (I have the flemme) roughly means the mental (and/or physical) incapacity of doing a generally simple task, of doing anything really, but also takes a slightly ironical acknowledgement of the link made between this incapacity and laziness, as the best way to translate would be “I’m too lazy/tired for this right now” even though the meaning actually covers a broader idea of discouragement and ennui.

Bonjour! Here’s the link to all my posts tagged ‘film’. If you scroll down a little, you’ll be able to find a list I wrote of my favourite French films, as well as links to websites where you can watch them for free. 

As for French series, unfortunately American series are by far the most watched and loved (as far as my experience in French households go with teenagers, anyway). French series exist, of course, but most often American shows are played on TV dubbed in French. I tend to watch these shows in French - it takes a little getting used to at the beginning if you’ve never watched anything dubbed before (i.e. the mouths don’t match exactly to what you hear) and if you’ve seen the show before in English, the voices are different which is funny sometimes. But generally I think it’s great, especially if you’re not an advanced learner, because when you’ve seen something before in your own language, it makes it much easier to understand it when watching again in a foreign language. I watch:

Gossip Girl in French.

Pretty Little Liars in French.

Skins in French.

Tellement vrai (interesting documentary show on random topics).

The Returned (creepy but awesome).

Le Tunnel (The Tunnel - bits in English and French).

Le petit journal (not a series but about current affairs).

I tend to also watch a lot on Youtube, because there are some great French youtubers - you’ll find a list of them here.

And here’s a website I found which suggests 10 TV series which are great for French learners.

To find all series, try:

Series on regarder-film-gratuit.com

Series on streaming-series.org

Series on vkstreaming-series.com

Or simply enter ‘regarder [name of TV show] streaming gratuit’ into google.fr

Une liste de chaînes Youtube françaises, longue mais non exhaustive.

Mon classement est un peu approximatif. Parfois, certains/es Youtubers/euses se retrouvent dans deux catégories, parce qu’ils/elles proposent des émissions sur des sujets très différents.

Il ne s’agit pas seulement de mes chaînes préférées, mais bien entendu, mes chaînes préférées sont dans cette liste. Et celles que je n’aime pas du tout n’y sont pas. M’en fout, c’est ma liste. Par contre, il se peut que j’aie oublié des chaînes intéressantes, toutes les propositions sont les bienvenues.

Tu as des questions au sujet d’une chaîne ? Si je peux, je me ferai un plaisir de te répondre :)

ALIEN (1979)

ALIENS (1986) dir. James Cameron

“Remember when we were kids, all those plans we made? It was like we were just waiting around for our lives to begin, planning all that stuff we’d do when we did. Somehow, life starts before you know it. Suddenly, you’re halfway through living it, and all those plans, they just don’t mean a damn thing. This is my life, Norma. I just don’t like it much.”

Here are some French YouTube channels I enjoy that you could check in order to practice and improve your understanding of French ! I will describe them a bit if needed, and I hope this post will be useful !

History

Les Revues du Monde - A channel about history and archaeology, more precisely about mysterious events

Horror Humanum Est - Animated videos about horrifying and bloody events in the world’s history

C’est une autre histoire -  Deals with mythology and arts, I would say

Nota Bene - Very interesting if you want to know about French history (but it is not the only thing the channel deals with !)

Sciences

Balade Mentale - The channel deals with many many things related to sciences but the thing I prefer about it is the fact that it deals with things related to the universe (among others)

Dirty Biology - It’s in the name

Dans Ton Corps - About health, health issues, human body !

Tu mourras moins bête - Animated channel about biology, physics, and much more

Languages 

Linguisticae - About linguistics

Le monde des langues - About language learning (you might find some tips to help you !)

Society (my absolute favorite category !)

Antastesia - Feminism, veganism, literature, travels… I also remember her talking about the LGBTQ+ community (my favorite channel e v e r !)

Data Gueule - Animated channel that teaches/proves you things about ecology, politics and so much more using A LOT of data

Antitésie - Education, feminism, books…

La Carologie - Feminism, spirituality, some videos deal with the LGBTQ+ community if I remember well

Esther - Weight, veganism, self love and just… Life I guess ?

Marinette - Femmes et féminisme - Feminism

Et tout le monde s’en fout - Humans, and their world

ASMR

PARIS ASMR

Elya ASMR
