CHANSON FRANÇAISE: HYMN TO RESISTANCE SINCE 1945

The Bonds in the Arc de Triomphe de l'Étoile
Today, The Bonds have visited the Arc de Triomphe de l'Étoile, Champs Elysées and Jardin du Luxembourg to homage Mariona Bond.

They have continued practising Telephoning English, although today The Grandma was a little crossed with comas and she wasn't very fortunate with it. Later, they have revised Present Perfect with Since and For and they have created some sentences about Second Conditional.

The family has done another exam. They have been talking about songs and their meanings, but, as we know, songs are poetry and poetry has a free interpretation. 


More information: Since / For

The Grandma has remembered some old friends who sing in French like Charles Aznavour, Édith Piaf, Charles Trenet, Jacques Brel and Céline Dion. They have also read Mary Shelley's Frankenstein.

Finally, the family has played with the works of a genius, Antoni Gaudí, who created an incredible architecture which can be understood from different points of view and this diversity of opinions and points of view makes us stronger and better.


Singing is a way of escaping. It's another world. 
I'm no longer on earth. 
Édith Piaf
