Did you see the eclipse? 🌒 Quick French grammar tip (Imparfait vs Passé Composé)

Talking about the eclipse is the best way to understand Passé Composé vs. Imparfait:

🌤️ Imparfait = Setting the scene / background

  • Il faisait beau. (The weather was nice.)
  • Le ciel était sombre. (The sky was dark.)

Passé Composé = The actual event

  • La Lune a caché le Soleil. (The Moon hid the Sun.)
  • *J'*ai regardé l'éclipse. (I watched the eclipse.)

💡 All in one sentence:

"Il faisait beau quand la Lune a caché le Soleil."

Where are the best spots or events in Toronto to practice conversational French?

Hey Toronto!

I'm a native French speaker and I'm curious about the local language community here. Are there any good conversation cafés, meetups, or spots downtown that you'd recommend for people looking to practice their French?

Would love to hear where learners and francophones usually hang out in the city!
