Bonjour class! Today’s word was inspired from my first 30 minutes of being in Paris last January, 2008. It was an INCREDIBLY long travel day with lots of new things and uncertainties ahead. We finally arrived to our Hotel Mercure near La Defense and as I sat in the lobby (we had to wait 3 hours to get into our room) I kept hearing the word, “d’accord”. Over and over and over to the point where I had to ask David its meaning.
DISCLAIMER : I don’t speak French well at all, IF at all….. all WUW words are those that I have found help me communicate on a daily basis in France and the definitions are purely out of my recognition of the word and how I have experienced them used.
” d’accord ” : (pronounced ~ ‘dacor’ with an emphasis on the ‘a’ and the ‘c’ is pronounced as a ‘k’) means ‘okay, yes I understand, I get it, that works, agreed’ etc.
Until next week, a la prochaine mes amis.
