Did you know?
French speakers use the word quel to ask which or what. And the French word for day is jour. So how would you say what day in French?
Quel jour
If you want to ask on what day a certain event is, you use est, just like you do with he or she.
For example:
Quel jour est le SuperBowl? (What day is the SuperBowl?)
Quel jour est le concert? (What day is the concert?)
In the last lesson, you learned some vocabulary for emotions or feelings. In the next activity, you will use that vocabulary combined with this lesson’s new vocabulary. Amelie, a French student, had an interesting week. She decided to draw how she was feeling every day. Look closely at Amelie’s drawings and answer the questions that follow.
