Entertaining, and not too dirty!,

This review is from: Talk Dirty French: Beyond Merde: The curses, slang, and street lingo you need to Know when you speak francais (Paperback)
This is a very handy guide to colloquial French. Most of us in the US, I suspect, learn a rather formal version of the language, which can leave us puzzled at crucial moments, either while in France or while trying to understand what the characters in a movie are really saying behind the subtitles. The book isn't really that dirty, in spite of the title. Most of it deals with quite inoffensive slang and colloquialisms. The section on "verlan" or reversed-syllables (see the Wikipedia article on it) was especially interesting and revealing. After three years of French and a summer in Geneva, I had no idea this even existed!

This book is a true MUST for the lovers of the French language! You need to have an open mind, a good basic knowledge of French and this book will help you to prepare your speech for fun or for a travel abroad. I found that the use of the book enhanced my vocabulary, and was easy to follow. I could use my Dirty French is public, or I can use it in France. (which I did and I was met with stares of "wow, she has studied")
