How do you ask someone if they want a piece of pretzel in French? |
Travel Info There is someone in the office I'd like to impress today. Only serious answers please. I don't want to end up asking him if he wants a piece of *** or something sick like that. Thanks Travel Tips The previous two answerers did a good job, with one exception. It tunrs out that there is an equivalent to "pretzel" in French. It's "bretzel" (considered as a buscuit from Alsace). And "z" will probably sound as "z" not as "ts". Voulez-vous un morceau de bretzel? And if it's a really close friend: "veux-tu un morceau de bretzel?" Source(s): http://www.granddictionnaire.com/btml/fr... Other Travel Tips I suppose you want to offer him a complete pretzel, not a piece of yours? Est-ce que tu veux un pretzel? or Veux-tu un pretzel? Addition: so yes, if it is a piece of a big pretzel, say: Est-ce que tu veux un morceau de pretzel? ou Veux-tu un morceau de pretzel? Veux is pronounced like the e in "the" I don't think the french have pretzels, or a word for them... so I would say, Voudrais-vous un morceau de pretzel? or to be safe, say, Voudrais-vous un pretzel? because morceau means piece, but I think it's more like a portion than a piece, like with cake. I think morceau would work fine though. And don't be intimidated by the 3 vowels together at the end of that word, it's pronounced something like an open o. And if you're feeling confident, gurggify that R! (I think I just made up a word :-)). I don't know if you've ever studied french, so just in case, the rest is pronounced something like, voodre-voo aen morso de pretzel? voodre-voo aen pretzel? tu veux un bretzel? helle my name is jerome in france you say d茅sires tu un pretzel? but in france we have not pretzel but we have pain au chocolat ou croissant,pain aux raisins |
