Did you know? 💡

In spoken conversations, “je” often turns into “sh” before plosive consonants.

So, instead of saying “je peux pas”– try saying “shpeu pas”. 🤔

Also, “je pourrais” transforms into “shpourrais” and “je trouve” becomes “shtrouve”.

For example you could say “Shtrouve ça fou” or “Shtrouve ça dingue” (meaning, “I find this crazy”)

Fascinated by these shifts? 😇

They're key to sounding more native and less like a textbook!
