FYW 245 : French slang expressions (4)
By popular demand, I have recorded a series of episodes to help you learn or recognise common French slang expressions. As you may know, the French you learn in the classroom and the French you hear in the street or in the movies can sometimes sound quite different!
In this episode we’ll go through some expressions meaning “to understand” (and a few more!)
Vocabulary and Spelling of the French Words mentioned in this episode
Piger = comprendre
On lui a montré une fois comment utiliser le logiciel et il a tout de suite pigé le truc.
Je pige que dalle à cet exo de maths !
Un exo = un exercice
Capter
J’ai rien capté / pigé / compris au cours de français !
capter l'attention (de qn)
capter un signal
Le voleur m’a pris le téléphone des mains et est parti en courant, j’ai rien capté / calculé !
Capter, calculer = se rendre compte (de qch)
J’ai dit à mes vieux que j’avais mal au crâne et que j’allais me coucher, puis j’ai fait le mur, ils ont rien capté !
Faire le mur = to sneak out = sortir en douce
