English Expressions Borrowed from French

Over the long years, the English language has borrowed a great number of French words or expressions. Some of them have been so absorbed in English that speakers might not realize their origin. Other expressions like “faux pas” have retained their “Frenchness”, with which speakers tend to sound modern. These expressions are often written in italics. The following are a few French expressions which are commonly used in English.

1. Faux Pas: It refers to a socially awkward or tactless act, a foolish mistake, something that should not be done. 失礼

2. au pair: A foreign female student who works for a family (cleaning and/or teaching the children) in exchange for room and board. 帮助料理家务换取住宿的外国女学生

3. Bon appétit: The closest English equivalent is “Enjoy your meal” . 用餐愉快

4. esprit de corps: It is similar to “group spirit” or “morale”. 团队精神

5. rendez-vous: In English it means “go to”. It can be used as a noun or a verb. 约会

6. RSVP: This abbreviation stands for Répondez, s'il vous plaît, which means “Respond, please”.敬请回复

7. bon voyage: a way of saying goodbye and wishing good luck 一路平安

Not having your cards can be seen as being unprepared to market yourself and your business. Don't start that new contact leaving them thinking “that person is already unprepared”.

“Never leave home without it ...” There are so many things we often have to remember in this go-go world we are living in … but your business cards should ALWAYS be with you.

Here are a few tips for you to go take care of this right now, so you

don't get caught in this situation:

✧ If you don't have a job, get Networking Cards.

✧ If you are employed, and haven't had new cards in 2 or more years,it could

be time for an update: info update and photo update ...

✧ Perhaps set a goal of handing out 5 cards a day.

✧ Practice what you will say when handing them out. On a daily basis, there
