| Hi everyone! I'm Alisha. |
| Welcome to Conversational Phrases! |
| We've found that the best way to learn a language is to speak it from day one! And the best way to start speaking is to learn phrases that you'll use in real conversations. |
| In this lesson, you’ll learn how to ask where something is located. After watching this video, you’ll be able to ask for directions. |
| Now, let's take a look at some conversational phrases! |
| Listen to the dialogue. |
| Où est le supermarché ? |
| Il est là-bas. |
| Once more with the English translation. |
| Où est le supermarché ? |
| “Where is the supermarket?” |
| Il est là-bas. |
| “It's over there.” |
| First of all you'll need to learn how to say "Where is [place]?" |
| The pattern is: Où est [place] ? |
| "Where is [place]?". |
| For example: |
| "Where is the supermarket?" |
| Où est le supermarché ?, Où est le supermarché ? |
| Now, how do you answer this question? |
| Il est là-bas. |
| "It's over there." |
| Listen to it again: Il est là-bas., Il est là-bas. |
| This French sentence translates as "He's over there." But it means "It's over there." |
