Let's learn to talk about the clothes in French!

Hi kids!

In this article, I am going to teach you some clothes vocabulary in French.

Let's get started with this musical video about Autumn & Winter clothes:

Les vêtements Automne & Hiver en français :


And now repeat the words in French after me:

How about participating in our Instagram Clothes video challenge?

You can do it in both French and English.

Video script in English:

Hi! My name is ... I come from ...
Here are my favorite clothes.
This is my favorite sweater / dress / skirt ...
These are my favorite pants / tights...

Video script in French:

Bonjour / salut !
Je m'appelle ... Je viens de ...
Voici mes vêtements préférés.
Ma robe / jupe / veste ... préférée.
Mon pantalon / T-shirt / pull / sweat / chapeau / manteau ... préféré
Mes chaussettes / collants / chaussures préférés

Masculine / Feminine nouns in french


In French all nouns are either masculine or feminine. We need to put a definite (le, la, les = the) or indefinite article (un, une, des = a, an, O) before each noun.

Here are some examples:

Feminine nouns

une, la (a, the)
  • une robe (a dress) / la robe (the dress)
  • une jupe (a skirt) / la jupe (the skirt)
  • une veste (a jacket) / la veste (the jacket)

Masculine nouns

un, le (a, the)
  • un pantalon (pants or a pair of pants) / le pantalon 
  • un T-shirt (a T-shirt) / le T-shirt 
  • un pull (a sweater) / le pull
  • un chapeau (a hat) / le chapeau
  • un manteau (a coat) / le manteau

Plural nouns

des (O: no article in English)
  • une chaussette (a sock)/ une paire de chaussettes (a pair of...) → des chaussettes (socks)
  • une paire de collants (a pair of tights) → des collants (tights)
  • une chaussure (a shoe) / une paire de chaussures (a pair of...) → des chaussures (shoes)

Sous le ciel de Paris This week, in our French class for adults , we will study this emblematic song, by Edith Piaf.  Learning a new language also means traveling to the heart of a new culture. This song will transport you to an idyllic Paris. The French language is renowned for its complexity. But we can make learning it exciting by exploring vocabulary and grammar through popular songs. During our French class, we have studied the verbs "être" (to be) and "avoir" (to have) in French . So, I have asked my students to locate these verbs in the lyrics of the song.To help them, I had previously bolded and colored all the verbs in red. We have also studied the definite and indefinite articles in French. They are essential to build sentences: Definite articles: le, la, les (the) Indefinite articles: un, une, des (a /an, some) Song lyrics Sous le ciel de Paris S' envole une chanson Hum, hum Elle est née d'aujourd'hui Dans le cœur d' un garçon Sous ...
