A short Russian-French phrasebook for tourists. Russian-French phrasebook for tourists - the minimum you need to know
1. French pronunciation is rather difficult, in particular due to the presence of nasal vowels. When they are pronounced, the air is partly expelled through the nose and partly through the mouth. When a syllable ends in a single "n" or "m", they are not pronounced, but indicate that the preceding vowel is nasal. There are three of them; in the Russian transcription of words and phrases, two letters are in bold, which means one nasal sound - an (yang, am), he (om) or en.
2. The standard French sound "r" is pronounced as follows: the back of the tongue bends towards the palate, preventing the passage of air flow, and the tip of the tongue lies flat against the front lower teeth.
3. To convey the French sound "eu" where it is fundamental for understanding, two Russian letters "oё" are used, put together. For the correct pronunciation of the sound, just slightly round your lips (the tongue lies flat) and try to say "o" in this position, thinking of "e".
4. The stress in French falls on the last syllable.
5. The French are very proud of their language. Therefore, even if you are going to communicate in English, start any question or sentence with a standard phrase: "Excusez-moi, parlez-vous anglais?"
The fastest way to master the spoken language is by teaching foreigners Russian, as well as by translating Russian classical literature and Russian educational literature into a foreign one. To do this, you must have a good knowledge of the Russian language and Russian literature.
Russia is the world leader in sights and cultural sites. In the future, Russia should become the most popular country for foreign tourists. The historical value of cultural sites and the possibility of recreation for tourists in Russia is much higher than any other country.
It is noticed that many people do not know the basic rules of the Russian language, for example:
1. The number of quotes should always be even, like parentheses in mathematics.
The adjacent quotation marks can be of two types - "..." and "..." (paws and herringbones).
Correct: "words" words "or" words "words" "
Incorrect: "words" "and" words "words"
These errors are found even in the names of large companies and in some articles and books.
2. If there is information in parentheses at the end of a sentence, a period is placed after the parentheses, not before the parentheses, and inside before the closing parenthesis.
That's right: words (words).
Wrong: words. (the words.)

To visit France is a passionate dream of many, not only romantic persons who have read a lot of sentimental novels.
Gourmets will not refuse to come here to taste dishes from classic French cuisine, there is something to taste and learn from winemakers, car dealers also visit the country for business purposes.
Unfortunately, the times when every self-respecting, educated Russian person was fluent in French are long gone.
The average tourist has a maximum of five or six phrases in his arsenal, and even those are drawn mainly from films and proverbs: "Cherche la femme", "Mercy boku", "Se la vie" and so on in the same spirit.
However, it is not enough to explain yourself in a hotel or a shop!
It is worth studying the minimal Russian-French phrasebook for tourists - and, of course, using it, since you are lucky enough to get to know France closely.
We do not give those words and phrases that are generally known or the meaning of which is easy to guess from the meaning, consonance or accompanying picture. Only the main ones that are really needed on the trip, but never before has a person who does not speak French met.
What to say at customs
This is where it all starts. You have crossed the border line, where now and what to say? Look for the inscription “Douane” - customs, or “Controle douanier” - customs inspection, or “Сontrole-t-on les passeport” (Control tone le passport) - passport control.
Frequent responses:
- 1. Je suis citoyen (ne) de russie - Same suis citoyen de russie - I am a citizen of Russia
- 2. Pour affaires - pour affaires - business trip
- 3. Comme touriste - com tourist - like a tourist
- 4. Sur invitation - sur evitation - for personal use
- 5. Je n'ai rien a daclarer - wives erienne a daclarer - I have nothing to do
- 6.Ce sont des cadeaux - se son de cadeaux are gifts
- 7.Je n'ai que mes bagages a main - it's not ke me luggage but mann - I only have hand luggage
How to explain at the hotel
The French are hospitable but proud people. They love their language very much and will be terribly happy if you at least try to communicate with them not in English, but even in broken French with the help of gestures.
They will meet you halfway, try to understand or guess what exactly you need.

We make an order in a restaurant
Ordering food in a French restaurant or cafe, poking your finger at random on the menu, would be very rash. Often times the menu is given in both French and English, but that doesn't always help. Remember a few important phrases.
- 1. Puis-je reserver la table - can I reserve a table?

Other useful phrases
Of course, one cannot be insured for all occasions, situations in a foreign city in a foreign country can be very different. We are sure that you will be able to figure out what kind of institution is in front of you: a shop, a restaurant, a pastry shop, a theater, a museum or an exhibition hall by the signs and showcases.
You will be able to buy the necessary products yourself in the market or in the supermarket, many of the names sound internationally. As a last resort, you can simply indicate what exactly you would like.
Also, we do not provide translations of numbers, days of the week, names of months and words of courtesy when meeting, meeting, saying goodbye, gratitude, etc.
These are clichés that you will hear many times a day and will be easy to remember without a dictionary or phrasebook. But a few especially useful phrases that are not used as often are worth memorizing.
- 1. Ou puis-je prendre un taxi? - Do the puij prandr en taxi? - where can i hire a taxi?
- 2. Je suis a paris pour la premiere fois - Je suis a paris pour la premiere fois. - this is my first time in Paris

Where else is French spoken?
Officially, French is one of the government's in more than 30 countries around the world. It:
- France;
- Belgium;
- Switzerland;
- Monaco;
- Canada;
- numerous African countries;
- French Guiana;
- States of the Caribbean;
- part of Mexico;
- Louisiana in the United States.
In total, more than 100 million people speak Moliere's language in the world. We hope that after studying this article, another one will be added to this number!
I read it myself - tell your friends! Put like!
Any study of a foreign language helps in development, career and can significantly strengthen your social position. This is an excellent brain training that allows you to maintain a sound mind and memory at any age. French is considered to be a rich and analytical language that structures thought and develops a critical mind, and when negotiating and debating, basic French phrases will serve you well.
Do I need to know them
Knowing everyday phrases is essential not only for tourists: French is an incredibly beautiful, melodic and inspiring language. People who know history cannot remain indifferent to France and its heroes, in an effort to join its culture, many are tempted to learn the language of its people. Hence the massive fascination with this language of lovers and poets, spoken by Maupassant, Voltaire and, of course, Dumas.
French is one of the six official languages of the United Nations and is spoken in 33 countries (including Haiti and some African countries). For a long time, knowledge of French has been considered good form, it is the language of diplomats and simply educated and cultured people. The main phrases in this language are heard at international symposia and scientific congresses.
Where come in handy
If you want to work in France, knowledge of the language will be a must. Many large French corporations work in Russia, if you start a career in them, then knowledge of French phrases at the initial level will help an employee of Renault or Bonduelle, Peugeot, as well as the cosmetic leader L Oreal.
Many people decide to come to France for permanent residence, and knowledge of French in this case is essential. Due to insufficient knowledge of the language, misunderstandings can arise, new acquaintances and expanding the circle of communication turn out to be impossible, even conflict situations are possible. This interferes with the well-being of those who wish to arrange their lives in France. English in this country is in low esteem, so knowledge of the French language is required, at least at the minimum level. The French are a very proud nation, and from everyone who comes here to live, they demand respect for language and culture. Ignorance of everyday simple phrases can touch the local people to the core.
Another passionate dream of many of our compatriots is to get higher education in France. This country offers many options for training, including on a budgetary basis. And again - where without a language? As soon as there are difficulties with the transfer in the exam, you may be denied admission to the university. Some French universities accept applicants without exams, only based on the results of an interview in French. That is why it is so important to know the language if you want to study in the country.
In French universities, as a rule, they enter a year before the start of the academic year, that is, the preparatory process can take quite a long time, there is an opportunity to learn French well, and the earlier you start your studies, the better you will show the result in the entrance tests.
