    Welcome back! Today we’re diving into the most useful parts of French slang: those little families of expressions that all grow out of a single word. They’re like Lego blocks — once you learn the base, you can build and understand all sorts of idiomatic expressions easily.

    So in this episode, we’ll explore these families, we’ll give loads of examples and several dialogues.

    We start with péter. On its own, it means… yes, to fart -but it also means to burst, to break, to explode. And this sense of ‘bursting’ or ‘being over loaded’ gives birth to tons of colourful slang, making pété like a Swiss army knife of slang

    In future episodes we will cover off other words like foutre and blindé
