Le mot du jour : baguette
“Une baguette” is a well known type of bread, but it is so much more!
First of all, “une baguette” is a stick, the kind you can find in the woods (it gave its name to the bread).
When it is “une baguette magique” then it’s a wand and if it’s not magic then it’s the wand used by conductors in concert.
We also use “les baguettes” to play the drums or to eat Chinese food as it’s our word for chopsticks!
As you can see, a very useful word to know!
