Can You Pass This Basic French Test?

Vingt means 20, and derrière means "behind"...and it also means a person's buttocks.

If you said "quel type de soupe êtes-vous?" you would have been asking "which type of soup are you?" Actually, come to think of it, that would make a great BuzzFeed quiz.

Oui! "Dix-sept" means 17. It translates as "ten-seven", because the French are a very literal people when it comes to numbers.

"Fête" means party or celebration, "dieu" means god, and "dimanche" means Sunday. This is an annual festival run by the Hindu temple Sri Manicka in Paris.

French people don't have any branches of Greggs at all. What a shame for them. They probably don't eat Scotch pie sandwiches either.

"Gagné" means win, and "première" means first. Jenifer was also a judge on the French version of The Voice.

"Seize" means 16, and France uses the 24-hour clock, so in this case they're saying 16:00, which is 4pm.

"Rouge" means red, hence the name of the Moulin Rouge (it means "red windmill.")

"Vêtements" means clothes, "chambre" means room, and "désordre"...well, you can probably guess that one.

"Demande a tes parents de lui parler" translates as "ask your parents to talk to her."

"Sortir" means leave or exit. "Laisse-moi rester" means "let me stay."

"Cuisine" = cookery.

If you go into a shop and ask for "un seau de bulots, du bière, et du carton", you'll receive a bucket of whelks, some beer, and some cardboard. You'd definitely need to take a cookery class to make something with those ingredients.
