If you have studied French before, what are the main things you remember?\u00a0\u00a0Foux da fafa<\/i>\u00a0is by a group from New Zealand called\u00a0Flight of the Conchords<\/i>.\u00a0 The song is a parody on words and expressions that students typically learn in introductory French courses.\u00a0 As you listen, see how much of the song you are already able to understand.<\/p>\n

Note:<\/i>\u00a0the members of this group are not native French speakers, so their grammar and pronunciation are not always correct!<\/p>\n

Flight of the Conchords is a folk, pop, and comedy band that bills itself as \"formerly New Zealand's fourth most popular guitar-based digi-bongo acapella-rap-funk comedy folk duo.\"\u00a0 The group uses a combination of witty observation, characterization, and acoustic guitars to wow its audience.<\/p>\n

The duo's comedy and music became the basis of a BBC radio series and then, an American television series, which premiered in 2007 on HBO.<\/p>\n

Play the video to listen to the song. It will pause every time there is a listening comprehension question. These questions are meant to challenge you and check your comprehension. You may slow down the recording by using the gauge on the bottom right-hand side of the player.
