What's your view on Le Saint-Valentin? These
French idioms can help describe how you feel: Je suis fleur
bleue - not literally a blue flower but a softie or sentimental
person. Or, Il n'y a pas de quoi fouetter un chat - no cats
harmed here, just means it's over-rated! Which one would
you choose?

January is a month for tightening our belts after Christmas. In Spain it’s “la cuesta de enero” (después de los gastos de las fiestas navideñas). Last day today!

A GCSE examiner loves an idiomatic phrase in your writing or speaking so how about describing someone as "más raro que un perro verde" (stranger than a green dog - a very odd or strange person). More to follow!

New favourite word in Spanish (I have lots!): refunfuñar - how cool is this and how useful with a husband and teenage daughters?!
¡No refunfuñes! ¡Haz tu tarea! (Don't grumble! Do your homework!)
¿Qué andas refunfuñando por lo bajo? (What are you muttering under your breath?)
¿Vas a seguir refunfuñando los próximos 20 años? (Are you going to continue being grouchy for the next 20 years?)
Anyone else have any favourite French or Spanish words to share?

¿Quién corta el bacalao en tu casa?
This isn’t about who does the cooking but who’s in charge? Maybe “who wears the trousers?” A lovely idiomatic expression from the days when the salted cod was the toughest fish to cut and only the most experienced person was allowed the sharp knife!

Continuing to commemorate our beloved Queen, did you know that in Spanish, the two princesses would have been called la Princesa Isabel y la Infanta Margarita. Only the heir to the throne takes the title “Princesa” in Spanish, younger siblings are known as “Infanta”. Hence the current princesses, la Princesa Leonora and la Infanta SofĂa.
