WHAT'S INSIDE
The five places to recognize. The King's Bedchamber, the Hall of Mirrors, the gardens, the King's Apartments, and the spots where Versailles became a true theatre of power. Each one named in French, with its English meaning.
Twelve phrases to visit. The simple French sentences you actually need: buying a ticket, asking for the gardens, asking the time of the fountains, ordering a coffee facing the palace. Each phrase in French, with its English translation. Words you can say out loud and mean.
The words of the court. A short, focused vocabulary list (le lever, l'étiquette, le grand couvert, les talons rouges), each one in French with its English meaning, so the story stays with you.
One cultural detail. Why Louis XIV turned a whole palace, and his whole day, into a spectacle. The idea of French elegance behind it all.
