Salut👋

Let’s learn some basic French vocab to talk about a nature getaway to a beautiful part of France!

Answers:

1. une plage, les plages (a beach, beaches)

2. partir (to leave, depart)

Explanation:

1. une plage, les plages

   The word "plages" translates to "beaches" in English. It refers to the sandy, pebbly, or rocky shores along the edge of a sea or lake. The singular form of “beaches” is “une plage”.

   An alternative word to use would be côtes, meaning "coasts" or "shores". This word also conveys the idea of being by the water but encompasses a broader area that includes not just the beaches but the coastal regions as a whole.

2. partir

   The verb "partir" means "to leave" or "to depart" in English. It is used to indicate the action of leaving a place to go to another. In the conversation, the use of "partir" is inquiring about the preferred departure time for their weekend getaway to the countryside.

   An alternative word would be quitter, which also means "to leave". While "partir" is generally used for departing to a destination, "quitter" can be used more broadly to indicate leaving a place or even leaving a person or situation.
