Hello and welcome to a new episode of Coffee Break French To Go!
My question for today is:
What does a typical day look like for you? (C'est quoi une journée typique pour toi ?)
Or, more formally:
What does a typical day look like for you? (C'est quoi une journée typique pour vous ?)
Let's take a look together at how people answered.
[Try to listen to the answers first time through without subtitles.]
Great answers, weren't they?
We're going to watch them again, but with subtitles this time.
So, a working day, I'm a school teacher
so my day starts around 8am when I arrive at school.
and then I spend the day with the children until 4pm -
the moment they leave class - and then I stay on afterwards to prepare for the next day.
And a 'holiday day' is a day when we don't have a set wake-up time,
we take our time, we don't have a set lunchtime,
and then, as far a possible, we have a change of scenery.
A typical day in class, let's say. Well, I get up.
Based on whether I'm on a work placement or not, I'll go there, for example.
I go to the hospital, I spend the day at the hospital and I come home. I work and then I go to bed.
And if I'm not on a placement, I get up, I work all day and then I go to bed after and spend the night.
For me, a typical day is simple. It involves getting up at 10 feeling energised,
staring with sport and then doing some important activities; activities that are important to me,
like working on personal projects for a large part of the afternoon and then, in the late afternoon,
being able to do some physical exercise,
sporting activities, dancing and making music, that kind of thing.
So, there you go, that's pretty much what a typical day looks like for me.
A typical day, well... it's a day by the pool with a little cocktail!
For me... I get up, I have breakfast, I go to class too.
I see patients if it's a day when I'm at the clinic, and...
afterwards, a bit of sport, and that's it, some fun, and, yeah.
I get up early, generally, so that I don't miss the school bus.
Then I get to school and I stay until 5pm.
At 5pm I spend 30 minutes on the bus, I get back home.
And there I have my after-school-snack, I do my homework, I watch a bit of TV.
Then, after, we eat and then I go to bed.
Well, for me, a typical day isn't a holiday.
Subway-work-sleep, I'd say.
They were some really nice answers, weren't they?
Now, are you ready for my question?
What does a typical day look like for you?
Well done, I love your answer! Great.
Unfortunately that's all for today, but we'll be back very, very soon for a new episode of Coffee Break French To Go!
Bye!
