We meet in each other’s houses, each member taking a turn at leading the session, finding a topic of interest, sometimes an item of news, a quiz, an exercise to improve our command of the language, a play, or a game – or we just chat in French.
Now that the challenges of Christmas are past we are settling down to new tasks: sometimes a tricky news passage to decipher or something lighter like the similes below.
Can you find matches for the following from the list below: as gentle as a lamb, as strong as an ox, as good as gold (good as a picture), as dull as ditchwater (boring as rain), as thick as two short planks (stupid as one’s feet)?
- Fort comme un bœuf
- Doux comme un agneau
- Ennuyeux comme la pluie
- Sage comme une image
- Bête comme ses pieds
