Show Notes

Throughout my time in Paris I've come across many an untranslatable word in the French language. I've talked about these before, even discussed them in my memoir, but for this episode I've rounded up my ten favourites. Or the ten best, if you will.

The rule to be classed as untranslatable: That it doesn't exist in a single word in the English word.

Enjoy the episode :)
