Show transcript
The sound-symbol correspondences [j] and soft [g] sound the same, as in 'aujourd'hui' (today) and 'courageux' (brave).
'Ça va' can be both a question: 'Is it going OK?' or 'how’s it going'? and an answer: 'it's going OK' or 'I'm OK'.
'Avoir' means 'to have'. It can be translated as 'to be, being' with certain expressions, e.g. 'j'ai chaud' (I am hot).
