  • Cultural and Contextual Understanding

    Posted by Frederic on May 23, 2024 at 8:26 pm

    Understanding cultural nuances, idiomatic expressions, slang, and social etiquette in a new language can be confusing.

    Our lessons include real-life scenarios that illustrate how language and culture are intertwined. We also have vocabulary and dialogue videos that address this topic. The same applies to our quizzes and graded essays; we ensure that they are related to the cultural context of the lessons. Additionally, we have instructors who provide feedback and guidance on cultural nuances and language usage in these essays.

    Fredrick lorsque je réserve une table dans un resto, puis-je dire “puis-je réserver une table ” ou dois-je dire “je voudrais réserver une table” ? je ne veux pas être impoli

      Les deux sont polis. Mais “je voudrais réserver une table” me semble plus naturel

    Merci. Je pense souvent que le français ait l’air plus formal que l’anglais.
