  1. UNITE 3 – Leçon B Ordering food and beverages

  2. Gender of Nouns • Unlike nouns in English, every French noun has a gender, either masculine or feminine. You will need to remember the gender of each French noun that you learn. • La Tour Eiffel

  3. Definite Articles – pg 84 • To refer to a specific person, place or thing, you use a definite article. The definite articles in French are listed below. • They ALL mean “the”. • Le – comes before a masculine word beginning with a consonant sound. • La – before a feminine word w/ consonant sound. • L’ – used instead of the le or la before a word that begins with a vowel sound. • Les – the plural form of le, la and l’.

  4. Pronunciation of Definite Articles • Le [luh] - rhymes with “je” • La [lah] • Les [lay] – rhymes with day, pay, ray, say! • In spoken French, the sound of “les” is often the only indication that the noun is plural. Always be careful to distinguish between the different sounds.

  5. Indefinite Articles • “Un” and “une” are indefinite articles. • They mean “a” or “an” (or “one” when using as a number!) • “Des” – the plural form – means “some” • The great thing about articles in French is that they usually indicate the gender of the noun. • Je voudrais une salade et un jus d’orange. • Salade is feminine; jus is masculine.

  6. des boissons (f.) • un café = a coffee • un coca = a Coke • un coca light = a Diet Coke • un jus de pomme = an apple juice • un jus d’orange = an orange juice • un jus de raisin = a grape juice • un jus de fruit = a fruit juice • une limonade = a lemon-lime soda • une eau minérale = a mineral water

  7. la nourriture • un sandwich • un sandwich au jambon • un sandwich au fromage • un hamburger • un hot-dog • un steak-frites • saignant = rare • à point = medium • bien cuit = well done

  8. une salade • une omelette • une quiche • le fromage = cheese • le jambon = ham • la pomme = apple • l’orange (f.) • les frites (f.) = fries • les raisins (m.) = grapes

  9. des desserts (m.) • une crêpe • une glace au chocolat = chocolate ice cream • une glace à la vanille = vanilla ice cream • le chocolat • la vanille • la fraise

  10. Je voudrais….. • Je voudrais [voo dray] = I would like • This is the POLITE way of saying “I want”. • When ordering food or drink, you would use “un” or “une” (or another number) prior to the noun (in most cases.) • Ex. Je voudrais un steak-frites et une limonade, s’il vous plâit . = I would like a steak and fries and a lemon-lime soda please.

  11. Donnez-moi…. • Donnez-moi = Give me • When ordering you speak formally to your “serveur”, hence the –ez (vous) ending to the verb donner, which means “to give” • Ex. Donnez-moi un jus d’orange s’il vous plâit. = Give me an orange juice please.
