Our food is almost prepared. But we want to ask when exactly it will be ready and when we should sit at the table. Let's see how to do that in this lesson. We'll meet the expressions "Je meurs de faim!" and "passer à table".

42. I'm starving! When can we sit at the table?!

Learn how to talk about a movie you saw last night - what it was about, where it was filmed, some adjectives to describe the plot, the way in which it was filmed - it's all in this lesson. If you haven't seen a particular movie, study the questions you'll need to put to someone who has.

In this lesson we're going to see what we'll need to say if we take something to a shop to have it repaired. First we'll need to describe the problem. We'll also find out how long it will take to resolve our problem.

In this lesson, our goal is to find out how to ask someone to do a favour for us. We'll meet the expression 'rendre un service à quelqu'un'. We'll also re-visit the expression 'il y a' but in the immediate future form. Finally, we'll study how to deal with the english verb 'to get'.

26. Could you do me a favour?

In this lesson, we're talking about someone's new hairstyle. We'll discover some 'technical' terms in relation to hairstyling, we'll look at two different uses for 'chez', and we'll see how to say we're 'bored by' or 'fed up with' something. Allons-y!

27. Wow! Your hair looks great!

In this lesson, we'll be dealing with some internet-specific vocabulary. We'll meet some other useful expressions, too, including 'I don't want to complicate my life!', 'I'm not promising anything' and 'it would be good if...'.

28. Do you have the internet at home?

In this lesson, we'll discover how to say 'It's been a while!' or 'It's been a long time!' We'll also find out how to ask what someone's been up to recently, and how to say that we've been working very hard...

29. It's been a long time!... What have you been up to?!
