Hello everyone! I hope you are well. We are back for a new episode of the Français Authentique podcast. Today, we are going to see the meaning of the expression "the shoemakers are always the worst shod". So, it is an expression that is often used in French. Maybe you have already used it or at least heard it.
Before we start, I wanted to remind you that you can access the course "7 rules for speaking French without getting stuck" . I often talk to you about it during podcasts, because it's a course that is already available for free, so it already allows you to set foot at Français Authentique and see how things work here, and especially because Johan developed this course to help you have a method of learning French that allows you to move from understanding to expressing yourself, because obviously you can very quickly understand a language and yet not manage to express yourself correctly, to speak this language correctly.
The course has been completely revised, it has kuwait whatsapp number data been completely updated recently. So even if you have already followed it before, I invite you to follow it once again because you will find new things there and I think it will bring you a lot for your learning. You can register for this course very easily and right now, it is the first link in the description. And if you can't do it, don't hesitate to contact us.
That being said, we can move on to explaining our expression, "the shoemaker is always the worst shod." As usual, we will start with the explanation of the words.
The first word is the word "cobblers". A cobbler is a craftsman who repairs shoes. He can also incidentally repair bags, anything that has to do with leather, so shoes, bags and other objects, but mainly shoes.
Then we have the group of words "the most". The most means maximum. It is a superlative.
The third word is the word "evil." Evil means bad, it means badly done.
And finally, the last word, the word "shouted". To put on shoes means to put on shoes. So when you tell your child: "go put on your shoes", it means: "go put on your shoes". And when we say: "take off your shoes", well it means: "take off your shoes".
