VOCABULARY: The words I include here are chosen because I somehow find them funny or cute or particular -- absolutely nothing to do with practicality or usability. La lune = moon (Satellite de la Terre, recevant sa lumière du Soleil; son aspect vu d'un point de la Terre) Miel = honey (the bee product) Lune de miel = honeymoon Clair de lune = moon light Lundì = Monday If you're into wholemeal bread/pasta/flour (pain/pâte/farine) you should be aware that even though your average dictionary (and bakery) will tell you that intégral and complet are the same they are not. Complet is in-between white and wholemeal. Intégral is 100% wholemeal. Épeautre = spelt (variété de blé dur)

Girafe = giraffe (grand mammifère ongulé, à cou très long et rigide, à pelage roux marqué d'un système de raies claires formant un cloisonnement polygonal. Girafeau = baby-giraffe (petit de la girafe)

PHRASEBOOKS: This phrasebook is one which gives you sentences that you would actually consider using - and it is funny as well.

DICTIONARY: This all French dictionary is really helpful when you are have studied the language for a little while. I am clue less why it is called Le Petit Robert, but perhaps it refers to the size of the letters used in it? This is also the book where I get the French explanations of the words on my website.

LANGUAGE SITES: If you are interested in learning French this site http://french.about.com has great resources for all levels.
