LEARN FRENCH IN 2 MINUTES - French idiom: Turning the page

Transcript of the video

Bonjour tout le monde, I hope you're well and ready for a new video in which we take a look at a French expression.

Maybe you've guessed it, today we're going to look at the expression turning the page.

I don't know if you're familiar with this expression. It simply means to move on, to move on. You could even say you're closing the book.

It means moving on to another stage in our lives, or leaving something or someone behind.

Here are a few contextual explanations to help you better understand the expression.

I forgot to mention it, but don't forget to activate the subtitles to help you understand the video better.

Let's move on to the contextualizations.

For example, I could say: Greg has completely moved on with Maéva. It's over, he doesn't love her anymore, he'll never get back together with her.

Here's some more context.

For example, if I have a friend who was a singer in her youth, I could say to her: don't you miss your singing career? And she might say no, I've completely moved on from my singing career. I'm now a chef and I love my new job. I've turned the page, it's behind me.

That's it for today.

Feel free to comment on any expressions you'd like me to explain or put into context.

If you liked this video, don't forget to give it a thumbs up and I'll see you soon for a new video. Have a nice day!
