I’m really enjoying my French novel, but it’s been a slow read for me. The author has an extensive vocabulary, which means I have to stop a lot to find out what new words mean.
Of course, extending my French vocabulary is the entire reason I’m reading the novel in the first place, so it’s silly to be frustrated by this. But I am impatient to find out what happens next!
(Today’s new word: “fiacre” — a horse-drawn carriage or hackney cab)
