0:53 - just dawned on me that _l'argent_ comes from _argentum_ or silver in Latin. How fun!!!

[@desanipt]

That's right. "Argent" also means silver in modern French, besides money, so you didn't need to go all the way back to Latin

[@thomashughes4859]

@@desanipt I don't know as much French yet as Latin, but as I am learning French, I can see why it is the best language for academic writing, etc. It lines up very nicely with the great languages of the world. Native speakers should be very proud! 😁

[@alejandrovallejo6763]

Funny enough in Spanish many latin american countries use as slang the word "plata" (silver) when refering to "dinero" (money)

[@thomashughes4859]

@@alejandrovallejo6763 Yup. It was weird at the border (Cd. Juárez), they used to say, "Plata (Mex) u Oro (US)" currency.

Est-ce qu'on a vraiment besoin de connaitre tous ces mots d'argot? Parce que je ne les connais pas du tout.

[@Deatgodx]

Not to speak but everyone say BAGNOLE for car or BOULOT for work for example so these are useful to understand if someone ask you : Est ce que tu vas au boulot en bagnole ? Do you go to work by car ? Slang is very important, french speak always with slang and they dont have the same slang. For example someone will say FRIC for money and someone else will say POGNON or THUNE. Because our personnal slang show our personnality and there is some nuances between modern slang, old slang, city or country slang. Someone like me can use sometimes old country slang because its quite funny.
