Experience the Language of Love


Being the second-most spoken language in Europe after English, French is included in the list of the six official languages of the United Nations, and is spoken in Belgium, Switzerland, Luxembourg, Andorra, Italy, Canada, Haiti and several other countries, in addition to its homeland of France. However, the general notion about the French Language is that it is the language of love. The reason behind this popular perception is not exactly known, but is seems to have formed as a collective opinion over the ages, in conjunction with the French way of life, their love for music, arts, food, wine, culture, beauty and romance on the whole. 


In a very interesting revelation made by Google Translate recently, French has indeed been proved to be the language of love, because the sentences or phrases that are sought for online translation have been found to have a high percentage of love-based or romantic ones, as compared to other languages. Out of 1000 Google Translations in French, 34 have been found to be love or romance-based, while the Spanish language is second in line, and very surprisingly, English is found to be at the bottom of the list of major European languages as far as love-phrases are concerned.

English words reinvented by French

French are known for their possessiveness towards their mother-tongue. They don’t pay attention to other languages particularly English. Even though French vocabulary has many words extracted from the English language but when we learn their meanings they don’t seem to be interpreting the same meanings as in English. Here I have listed some words which sound like the Shakespearean language but have very little to do with English. Even though these words have been minted by French, they either have changed meaning or stripped.
·         Un dressing : This word is particularly confusing as in English it means a dressing room or a dressing  gown while in French language it just means a closet.
·         Black: In French language when you say that you are working in black it just implies that your salary is not declared by the government or is off the records. While in English language it would just mean that you are working in pitch darkness.
·        Le pressing: If you have ever walked along the cities of France, you must have noticed this word. So what is it exactly? Le pressing in France means dry cleaner’s place and not pressing something!
·          Le footing: Le footing is a French adopted version of jogging and running.
·         Un lifting: You must be thinking that this word has something to do with lifting something but it is    not so! In French ‘Un lifting’ simply means a minor plastic surgery or just a face-lift.

Likewise there are more than thousands of such words and phrases in English originated French words which when transited give entirely different meanings.
