Asking someone how they are Here are three ways of asking this question: Ça va? To use with a friend or someone you know very well Comment ça va? To use with a young person you don’t know well Comment allez-vous? To use with an adult who isn’t a close friend
Using verbs (doing words) Learning to use French verbs is very important. Regular verbs follow patterns you can learn to use (see page 130). Those that don’t follow these patterns are called irregular verbs. To talk about how you are feeling you can use the verb être (to be). It’s an irregular verb.

Look at how it works: je suis I am il est he is
Pronunciation The cedilla mark under the letter ‘c’ (ç) before the letters ‘a’, ‘o’ and ‘u’ makes it sound like the letter ‘s’. The letter ‘c’ always sounds like the letter ‘s’ in front of the letters ‘e’ and ‘i’. Listen to the sound of the letter é, for example in the word fatigué.
Exemple 1f a
Ça va bien, merci. Et vous?

c
Ça va très mal aujourd’hui.

In French, the spelling of an adjective often changes depending on the person or thing it is describing. For example, many have an extra ‘e’ at the end to show that they are describing a girl or woman.
Écoute, écris la bonne lettre (a–f) et dessine le bon symbole. Listen, write the correct letter and draw the correct symbol.

3.1 Un régime sain et équilibré
Objectifs • Describe meal routines • Identify reasons to eat healthily • Use partitive articles and adverbs accurately
Tu manges un régime équilibré?
Quel est ton repas préféré ? Je crois que le petit déjeuner est un repas important. Généralement, je mange du pain grillé avec de la confiture et du beurre car ça me donne de l’énergie. Je bois aussi du jus de fruits et un chocolat chaud. Si je ne prends pas de petit déjeuner, j’ai faim à 10h alors je grignote et c’est mauvais pour la santé. Fabienne
● Develop oral fluency with downloadable audio files which
include listening comprehension exercises
Workbook
Pour moi, le dîner est le meilleur repas de la journée. J’essaie de manger une entrée, un plat principal et un dessert. Normalement, je prends de la salade ou des crudités comme entrée et puis de la viande avec du riz ou des légumes et pour finir, un fruit. Je mange assez tôt pour avoir le temps de digérer avant de me coucher. Patricia
Je ne prends jamais de petit déjeuner car je n’ai pas le temps. Ce n’est pas très sain mais tôt le matin je n’ai pas faim. Alors, je mange plus au déjeuner. Par exemple, je mange des pâtes ou un sandwich aux œufs car je suis végétarien et comme boisson, je bois de l’eau minérale. Comme dessert, je mange souvent un yaourt et une pomme ou une banane. Un bon repas équilibré me donne de l’énergie pour le reste de la journée et je me concentre plus facilement. Sylvain

bumper – bursary
Verbs The Imperative The imperative is the form of the verb used to give commands or orders. It can be used politely, as in English ‘Shut the door, please’. In positive commands, the imperative forms for Vd, Vds and nosotros are the same as the subjunctive. The other forms are as follows: tú (same as 3rd person singular present indicative) vosotros (final -r of infinitive changes to -d) î (tú) habla speak (Vd) hable speak (nosotros) hablemos let’s speak (vosotros) hablad speak (Vds) hablen speak
come eat coma eat comamos let’s eat comed eat coman eat
vive live viva live vivamos let’s live vivid live vivan live
In negative commands, all the imperative forms are exactly the same as the present subjunctive. The imperative of irregular verbs is given in the verb tables, pages 82 to 160. Position of object pronouns with the imperative: • in positive commands: they follow the verb and are attached to it. An accent is needed to show the correct position for stress (see page 296) î • in negative commands: they precede the verb and are not attached to it î For the order of object pronouns, see page 236.

Backbencher Député de la Chambre des communes qui n'occupe aucune fonction officielle, ni au gouvernement, ni dans le cabinet fantôme. Il siège donc sur les bancs du fond de la Chambre, contrairement aux « frontbenchers », membres du gouvernement ou de l'opposition, qui sont assis aux premiers rangs. Par leur position, les backbenchers ne sont pas tenus de suivre aussi rigoureusement les consignes de vote de leur parti. L'expression back benches désigne l'ensemble des backbenchers, toutes appartenances confondues.
