Video: learn how to say the weather in French

Here is a video I published on Youtube to learn simple phrases about the weather.

Proverbe: En avril ne te découvre pas d'un fil.

En avril ne te découvre pas d'un fil. Literaly, it means "In April, don't take off a thread". The saying means: don't remove your clothes too much when the weather is getting warmer because it can change quickly and become chilly. 

It's so true today. It's only 6 degrees (degrés) in some parts of France after a heat wave (une vague de chaleur) a few days ago.

And usually, the saying is followed by "En mai, fais ce qu'il te plaît", i.e. "in May, do what you like".

grèves

If you plan to go to France, please check on the following link and calendar (calendrier) when the national rail (SNCF) plans to go on strike (faire la grève) from April to June. The dates are highlighted in pink.
Also, other public transports might be on strike the same days too.

The right to go on strike is written in the French Constitution (la constitution), so whenever civil servants (les fonctionnaires) are unhappy with a change, they go on strike and it could block the whole country.
