This month in Paris: a physiotherapy session that becomes performance art, the perfect French apéritif, Louis XIV's lost carpets at the Grand Palais, a mix-up at the French kung-fu championships, the joy of writing freely in another language, a surprise tap-dance class in the 11th arrondissement, and Victor Hugo as interior designer.
 
February is a rich month — rich in encounters, in culture, and in grammar. In the notes, I look closely at negative sentences and how they work in real spoken French, the relative pronouns qui and que, reported speech and the style indirect libre as Flaubert used it, and a close look at the verbs that give a Parisian walk its flavour.
