From a word we had just a few weeks back (une feuille) comes today’s verb "feuilleter." A word close to any reader’s heart. For those of you who enjoy "flipping through" books or magazines, I want to share some news that has me slightly "flipping" out. (As in, dancing atop all 26 dictionaries, singing "C’est prêt! It’s ready!")

New! from Four Frogs Press: "Words in a French Life, Volume II"

The new collection of words and stories (from the daily letters sent out last spring) will go to the printers tonight! This second volume is positively infused with French idiomatic expressions, thoughtful French quotes and more. The individual stories are vocabulary-packed and I have taken care to tuck in even more French expressions, to make this edition the best value so far.

feuilleter (fuhy-tay) verb
1. to leaf through (a book)
2. to roll and fold dough
3. to laminate glass
