Reverso #Context 🇫🇷

Expressio, a project by Reverso, is a French-language dictionary devoted to unpacking common and popular French expressions. It explains what each expression means and explores its origins, history and etymology, helping readers understand not only how a phrase is used but where it comes from. Entries may also include examples and translations, while the site presents a featured expression, selected sayings and a searchable collection of expressions.

For readers curious about idioms across languages, Expressio points to equivalents in languages including English, Spanish, German, Italian, Arabic, Chinese and Russian. The site invites visitors to subscribe to receive an expression daily or a weekly selection by email. Users can also contribute translations or equivalents, take part in forums and help enrich the collaborative dictionary.

Expressio’s extensive content has also been published as a book, available in paperback. As part of the wider Reverso offering, the site connects visitors with language tools and services such as translation, dictionaries, grammar and spelling correction, and verb conjugation
