Words, words and more words: French dictionary adds 150 new words

The French language is one of the prides and joys of the French people. As a result, when the major French dictionaries add new words it creates quite a buzz. Le Petit Larousse has added 150 words to its 2025 edition and some of its choices are surprising. FRANCE 24's Solange Mougin tells us more.

This Entre Nous aired on Paris Direct, April 30, 2024. A programme produced by Amanda Alexander, Marina Pajovic and Georgina Robertson.
