MIKA - ELLE ME DIT (Language through song)

Thus begins a new chapter in language learning lessons from SAY WHAT?! - the opportunity to learn vocabulary and grammar via your favourite French songs using Memrise.

You can skip straight to the Memrise course by clicking HERE

Feel free also to ask any grammar questions in the comments section, or in the forum attached the the memrise lesson.

une chanson - song
tout le monde - everyone
secoue-toi! - pull yourself together
secouer - to shake
danser - to dance
vas-y! - go on!
finir comme quelqu'un - to end up like someone (literally: to finish like someone)
tant pis! - never mind
s'en vouloir - to blame oneself
