Today we’ll focus on the term les infos, which translates to “the news” and is really a shortening of les informations (the news). Another word used for news in French is les actualités, which also means current affairs.
les infos
news
Example sentences
For this first sentence, “à quelle fréquence” means “how often?”.
A quelle fréquence est-ce que tu regardes les infos ?
How often do you watch the news?
This second sentence uses the previously mentioned les actualités (news). Il ne faut pas translates literally to “it’s not necessary to”. However, I used the loose translation “don’t”. The pronoun on has many usages including “you”, “we” and people in general.
Il ne faut pas croire tout ce qu’on voit aux actualités.
Don’t believe everything you see on the news.
