"Encore" is what we say to request, encourage or beg a performer to return to the stage. Although we are using it in a sense that sort of means the same thing as it can in French, it is NOT used like this in French. In French, it is "bis!"

So where does that leave the poor wanna be French speaker? Let us explore the ways together today; all that "encore" can be. You will be amazed!
