For some, it’s the world of French culture that acts like a magnet, whether that’s the paintings of Monet or Cezanne, the novels of Balzac or Proust, or perhaps the music of Jacques Brel or Serge Gainsbourg. Meanwhile, others simply can’t get enough of la cuisine française – and let’s face it, who can resist a mouth-watering pain au chocolat straight from the oven with their morning café au lait or a generous wedge of camembert spread onto fresh baguette? Whatever France means for you, it’s sure to be special – and made all the more so if you have a grasp of the rich language that accompanies this beautiful heritage!
