Bonjour! This week is National French Week and the French Honor Society is excited to share some facts about the language spoken by 275 million speakers worldwide. French is not just spoken in Europe. Many speakers are African in origin, and other than English, French is the only language spoken on 5 continents. French also has a rich history and connections that help give it a background unlike any other language. We’d like to see how much you know about French. Each day for the rest of the week, we will ask a trivia question and the first person to email the correct answer will win a prize! Today’s Trivia Question is: In which French speaking country is Timbuktu located? Do you know the answer? Email us at howardfhs@gmail.com with your name and response. The first correct winner will win a sweet prize!
