Chaque langue, et le français n’est pas différent, a ses propres expressions, ces groupes de mots qu’on utilise sans se rendre compte et que tout le monde qui parle la même langue comprend parfaitement. Pourtant, si une personne étrangère les écoute et les essaye de comprendre mot par mot, probablement, elle ne pourra pas. Ces expressions font partie du vocabulaire de la langue et il faut qu’on les connaisse pour comprendre et s’exprimer tout naturellement. De plus, c’est amusant découvrir la signification et l’origine de chaque expression. Voilà quelques expressions qui m’ont attiré l’attention :

The English word “ouch” is commonly used as an expression of one’s physical pain, (refer to the episode for usage) although, in China, I would normally say “哎哟”（ai-yoh) instead. In France, the equivalent is “Aïe”. This got me curious, and while searching for other expressions, I bumped into an article from The Guardian —“Is ouch used worldwide?”. Well, the answer is no, and people being interviewed in the article have shared some amusing examples from their cultures, illustrated here. Even though the expressions vary from one another, one thing in common is that they all begin with a vowel, and are quite short to pronounce. I guess we all go back to our primal instinct when getting hurt.
