Meet a French Family Easy Bilingual Story

This story will help you practice your French vocabulary about family in context. This story is a bit twisted to help you formulate more complex familial situations using  French vocabulary for recomposed families.   Discussing Family in French Camille et Anne parlent de leurs familles.Camille and Ann are talking about their families. CamilleEt toi Anne, ta famille est originaire d’oà ¹ ?What about you Anne, where is your family from? AnneMa famille est amà ©ricaine. Du cà ´tà © de ma famille paternelle, j’ai des origines franà §aises, et des origines anglaises du cà ´tà © maternelle.My family is American. French on my father side and English on my mother side.   How to Say Do You Have Siblings in French? CamilleEt tu as des frà ¨res et soeurs ?And do you have any siblings? AnneC’est un peu compliquà © : je n’ai pas de frà ¨re ni de soeur de sang, mais mes parents ont divorcà © quand j’à ©tais trà ¨s jeune, et mon pà ¨re s’est remarià © avec une femme qui avait dà ©jà   trois enfants. J’ai grandi avec eux et je les considà ¨re comme mes frà ¨res et soeurs. Et toi ?It’s a bit complicated: I don’t have any blood siblings, but my parents got divorced when I was very young, and my dad remarried a woman who already had three children. I grew up with them and I consider them like my siblings. What about you? Talking About your Step Family in French CamilleMoi, aussi je viens d’une famille recomposà ©e. Mon pà ¨re est mort quand j’à ©tais bà ©bà ©, et ma mà ¨re a rencontrà © un homme beaucoup plus à ¢gà ©e qu’elle, qui avait dà ©jà   deux enfants adultes. Donc j’ai des neveux et des nià ¨ces qui ont le mà ªme à ¢ge que moi. Et puis je suis restà ©e trà ¨s proche de ma famille paternelle aussi. Mon pà ¨re avait une soeur qui est presque comme une seconde mà ¨re pour moi. Ma tante a une fille de mon à ¢ge, ma cousine germaine donc, avec qui j’ai passà © toutes mes vacances. Elle a eu des enfants en mà ªme temps que moi, et donc nos enfants, cousins issus de germains, sont aussi super proches.I too come from a blended family. My father died when I was a baby, and my mother met a man much older than she was, who already had two grown-up children. So, I have nephew and nieces who are the same age as me. And I remained very close to my father’s family also. My father had a sister how is like a second mother for me. My aunt has a daughter the same age as I, therefore my direct cousin, with whom I spent all my vacation. She had children at the same time as I did, and therefore or children, second cousins, are also very close.
