Hello dear listeners, French culture has a deep love and respect for the arts, from opera and dance to comedy and fashion. So in this special season of the Duolingo French podcast, we're going to take the stage and revisit our favorite stories about artists and performers.
The theater, it's a little bit different. It's a little bit different. Shac-mo, Shac-C lab, is a music music. Not just a note, but a melody.
We'll take you from the theaters and dance studios of Paris to a world-renowned opera contest on a small island in the Indian Ocean. We'll meet an undercover clown and a French can-can dancer. Plus, we'll share updates from many of the performers themselves.
That was the opening. The rest of the episode (1 min) is in the player: every word clickable, with translation, saved words and flashcards.
