Vocabulaire Du Métro - French Subway Vocabulary

Vocabulaire Du Mà ©tro - French Subway Vocabulary Le meÃŒ tro parisien est la facÃŒ §on la plus simple et la plus rapide de voyager aÌ€ Paris et dans sa treÌ€s proche banlieue. Le meÃŒ tro marche tous les jours, de 5h30 du matin aÌ€ minuit et demi environ, c’est un train souterrain qui s’arreÌ‚te automatiquement aÌ€ chaque station. Il faut parfois que vous appuyez sur le bouton de la porte pour l’ouvrir. The Parisian subway is the fastest and easiest way to travel around Paris and in the nearby suburbs. The metro runs every day from 5:30 a.m. until around 12:30 a.m. It is an underground train that stops automatically at each station. It is sometimes necessary that you press the button on the door to open it. Le Tram Le tram est aÌ€ peu preÌ€s la meÌ‚me chose que le meÃŒ tro, sauf qu’il est aÌ€ l’exteÃŒ rieur, sur des rails dans la rue. The tram is almost the same thing as the subway except that it is above-ground and runs on rails in the street. Le RER Le RER est un train plus rapide, qui couvre de plus grandes distances et va dans les banlieues proches de Paris. Attention qu’il existe des trains express qui ne s’arreÌ‚tent pas aÌ€ toutes les stations. The RER is a faster train that travels greater distances and goes to the nearby Paris suburbs.
