How to Say Hello in French

 

Hello

The fashion retailer French Connection has been on the verge of collapse since its collapse in 2014, but founder Peter Marks is determined to prove that he can make the brand work once again. His strategy has included closing a number of stores, but a recently relaunched homeware collection and plans to expand in China and India are a clear sign that he’s not FCUK-ing up yet.

But it’s not all bad news: Marks recently swooped on Britain’s Got Talent judge Amanda Holden to promote his spring line, and she looked great in a navy blue bell-sleeve jumper and yellow mini skirt. The outfit was priced at PS70 and is available to shop online now.

It’s not just about a few new pieces, however; it looks like the infamous FCUK slogan may be making a comeback! Inspired by Wonderbra’s attention-grabbing ‘Hello Boys’ campaign – which featured Eva Herzigova in a bust-enhancing bra – ad man Trevor Beattie zoned in on the acronym and created an entire campaign around it. The move has caused a lot of controversy, with some MPs and the Church of England complaining that it’s inappropriate for a brand aimed at young women.

There are a few different ways to say hello in French, and it depends on how you wish to greet someone and also the gender The french connection ep and relationship of that person. One of the most common is salut, which means hello in English and is used to greet friends and family as well as strangers. It can also be used to say goodbye.

Another way to say hello is allo, which is often heard on the phone and usually said in a rising tone as if you’re asking a question. It’s not just a greeting, though; it can be used to show surprise or annoyance as well. It’s become especially popular thanks to French reality TV star Nabilla, who used it when she expressed her disgusted disbelief that her fellow celebrity didn’t use shampoo.

A more formal but still casual way to greet someone is quoi de neuf? This literally translates as what’s up, and is an acceptable way to ask how someone is (although it can also be rude, as shown by Bugs Bunny when he greets his docteur with a sarcastic ca farte?) It can also be used to show interest or gratitude.
