==Expressions==
==Expressions==
===T’as d’beaux yeux, tu sais ?===
*Translation: You have beautiful eyes, you know?
This romantic French phrase means, “You have beautiful eyes, you know?” It’s actually a famous reference from the French film, “Le Quai des Brumes.” People go head over heels for lines from beloved flicks, so be sure to check out the movie to discover the perfect way to use this line!
===J’ai eu un coup de foudre !===
*Translation: I was struck by lightning!
In French, “le coup de foudre” literally means a strike of lightning, but it can also mean, “love at first sight.” So this phrase is another way of saying, “I fell head over heels.” Romantic French phrases like this one are sure to melt hearts and send that rush of excitement right through the body.
===Tu veux sortir avec moi ?===
*Translation: Do you want to go out with me?
This phrase means, “Do you want to go out with me?” But be careful, as it can be used romantically or simply among friends! Trust us, the last place you want to be is stuck in the friend zone with no way of escaping.
===Si on prenait un verre un de ces quatres?===
*Translation: What if we grabbed a drink one of these days?
Use this phrase if you want to invite someone for a drink. It literally means, “What if we grabbed a drink one of these days?” It’s a simple, friendly question that can be delivered without hesitation.
===Je t’apprécie.===
*Translation: I like you (to express romantic interest)
The verb apprécier generally means “to appreciate (someone or something).” However when you use it in this way, it means “I like you” or “I have a crush on you.” It’s sweet that appreciating someone in French can also mean being romantically interested in them.
===Tu me manques===
*Translation: I miss you.
Contrary to what you might think, this phrase actually means, “I miss you”! It literally translates to, “You are missing from me.” And is there anything better to hear from a romantic interest than that they missed you? It’s always nice to know your absence is noticed.

Simple, straightforward and to-the-point, this French phrase means, “Kiss me!”.
