When something unusual happens, it is common for French to use common expressions like in English "Oh my God" or "Madre mía" in Spanish. Francophones have their own, curious, easy to learn and fun expressions like in the examples below:
- Ça, alors (Whoops!)
- Ça, c'est bien! (How good!)
- Ce n'est pas possible! (It's not possible!)
- C'est impossible! (It is impossible!)
- C'est magnifique! (Magnificent!)
- Great! (Great!)
- Impressionante! (Awesome!)
- Incroyable! (Amazing!)
- Mon Dieu! (Oh my God)
- Oh là là! (Oh!)
- Ouf! (Phew!)
- Quel malheur! (What a disgrace!)
- Quel travail! (What work!)
- Quelle chance! (Lucky!)
This type of short expressions help us to express our emotions when something happens so that our interlocutor can see our reaction.
