Jeux de mots

Flashcards and quizzes can only get you so far when learning new vocabulary words, and Provo doesn't afford many opportunities for French conversation. For a little change up in your study routine, or just a fun way to test yourself, try these games from Lemonde.fr. There is a crossword puzzle updated everyday, as well a sudoku if numbers are your thing. "Tiroirs secrets" is my personal favorite, but there are several different games that test different aspects of culture and vocabulary. The object of "Mots coupés" is to match up the right syllables to form a word. "Le juste mot" is a bit easier; just find the word to match the definition.




In the meantime, don't forget about Soirée Chanson tomorrow night! Here's a great song by Françoise Hardy to get in the right mood.
