French Word of The Day

D'huile.


Oil, as in, "Would you like oil on your panini?"


I was tested multiple times today, and every time I did ok. But in the sandwich shop I was doing great. Had everything ordered. Was able to answer questions. He was understanding me. Then BAM, d'huile. Quoi (what)? I even know the word, but every time it is spoken, it stumps me. It just never sounds like I expect it too. It was only a minor hiccup, but he did have to use visual aids to help me out. Bummer.
