The Earful Tower: Paris


The Earful Tower: Figuring out France with guests who know best. 

May 10, 2017

We asked listeners for their most embarrassing mistakes when trying to speak French. 

Important background: 

Jouer means "to play", jouir means "to orgasm". 

J'ai chaud means "I'm hot", je suis chaud means "I'm horny". 

Un baiser is "a kiss", baiser is "to f$$k"

The rest are pretty self explanatory.

Oh, and if you're easily offended, do not listen to this episode.
