Wednesday Mad-Libs

...in which I take a bunch of completely random* words from the dictionary for your vocabulary learning entertainment.

Our words today are:

coriace	adjective
gamme	nom féminin
hanter	verbe
mine	nom féminin
pleurer	verbe
pose	nom féminin

 What do they mean? 

coriace	tough. (in texture or in character) difficult to beat; resilient; stubborn.
une gamme	series of things; range; a musical scale.
hanter	to haunt. (like, ghosts and such.) Also, you could haunt your favourite location.
une mine	1.      Mine (as in a coal mine) 2.      Lead(Actually graphite) (as in the lead in my pencil) 3.      Mine (as in the mine I stepped on exploded) 4.      A look, an expression on one’s face. (Hah! weren’t expecting that were you?!)
pleurer	to cry, to wine, to lament. to shed tears
une pose	a pose! Like when you stand on your head, or pose for a photo.

Let’s see these new words in action!

-          Oh! Comme tu as mauvaise mine! Pourquoi pleurs-tu?

-          On m’a vendu une gamme de mines de crayon qui cassent trop facilement. Je n’arrive pas à les revendre. Ça me hante depuis la semaine dernière.

-          Quel problème coriace. Fais-moi une belle pose, je te prendrai en photo pour mettre une annonce dans le journal.
