"Migratory Words" - 2007 French Language Week

The French Ministry of Culture and Communication will run 2007 French Language Week from March 10 to 20, with events in France and abroad.

This year's theme is "Migratory Words." A list of ten foreign loanwords adopted by the French language illustrates how words travel across borders and cultures.
